On your other point of the height of syphon making the handle sit at an angle - This is incorrect, as what you can use is a longer link wire, which you can buy at DIY & merchants.
A Dudley height adjustable syphon can be set for correct height. If you set it at a low enough height for internal overflowing, then make sure it is perfect by overflowing the cistern to check water level doesn't reach handle or other holes.
 
I've tried about 3 merchants - no luck! That was plumbase, plumb centre and another.. No joy! Not many local type firms round these parts now. The other part they offered me was a ideal standard type - totally wrong.

Is there a national firm that has these available do you know?

Also, assume I have to get the 9.5" siphon?
 
Lower syphon will be fine as it just means the water level has to be a lower max level, but that won't matter in your toilet & probably can be to normal water line anyhow. Only problem apart from link wire short is the Ballvalve arm can easily get jammed on the upper bit of the syphon as the arm moves up & down. It is a case of touching one thing causes more problems! I would tended to have just connected up the overflow pipe as that syphon you have is a good one.
But if you wish you could fit a lower syphon with a longer link wire (if needed) & possibly consider the ballvalve MIGHT have to be replaced with a vertical fill valve like a Fluidmaster or similar.
 
As part of my education just how many different types of donuts are there ?

How I sometimes wish for the old days when there was less options on everything.
