The hole needs to be square/house/square/house. Above. Below, my PSU has a 1 4-pin that fits perfectly, while the other has 4 house pins which doesn’t work with my Asus B360m-k.

Also note the 1x 4-pin option available.

The “house” pins also fit into the square pin holes. Just adjust its position until it works, or use a 1x4 pin connector if needed.

When the PSU cable has "CPU" or "EPS" printed on it, it's the correct one. The motherboard CPU power connector layout is: Square - Square - House Square - House Square - House - House - Square. Also, review what @DoctorNick mentioned earlier.

Yes, it should still function properly.

It makes sense to place the house pin on the square ones.

Ensure the cable specifies CPU or EPS.

It's an i3 8100 and a B360M K Asus Prime, with an 1TB HDD at 8GB and 2400MHz AVX-IR. The 500W +80 rating isn't very high, so it should fit on a standard home setup.

The power cable works just like yours, and the CPU connector shape matches what you have. In the earlier link I shared my Corsair HX cable plug design along with your motherboard CPU terminal shape—it aligns perfectly with yours.

It should function with a single unit. Verify how each part maps to its destination. It seems the overall design appears intact, though some squares might have been reshaped into a circular form—hard to confirm from the image.
