For me, with a bit shorter tail I would be picking bottom left of the originals.
Small Greenwells Glory fished dead drift upstream during a hatch here can be deadly, no reason any of the Olives shown here would not do the same, but I like the darker hackle, perhaps it is just more Greenwell like to my eye.

There are some excellent small Olives in this thread. ;)
