Default 67 K15 Rear Driveshaft Spline

I noticed this weekend that the spline on the rear driveshaft on my 1967 K15 seems very extended. I don't know how long the slotted spline section of the driveshaft is, but from the picture you can see a noticeable portion of the spline sticking out from the coupling with the front driveshaft section that comes from the transfer case and goes to the rear diff.
This is a 305E V6 with an SM420 transmission. No lift, all stock. Does this seem like the shaft might be too extended from the coupling, or is this much visible spline normal? I don't want to worry over nothing, but I trust the forum's great minds on what is "normal" for these old beasts.
