I don't see any issue there. Two certificates may be of vastly
different lengths for many different reasons. So far there's no reason
to believe they contain different lengths of asymmetric keys.
A 4096-bit key takes up about 12 lines of text in a certificate. The
rest is other, non-key-related stuff.
Instead of posting a link to an image of two certificates, please share
the two certificates themselves -- for instance, via Dropbox or
Pastebin. Once we can see the actual certificates we'll be able to more
fully explain what's going on.
