It looks to me like you have a UK spec nearside tail light and a Jap spec offside tail light.

Bulb not fitted correctly, IMO.

Nah its odd clusters, I'll put money on it!

OP, if the reflector is directly above the reverse light you have a Jap light if the reflector is in the middle of the cluster not above the reverse light you have a uk light.
A pic of each tail light separate (with lights off) will confirm

Then that confirms blu-scoob was right.

The Import lights have no fog. The UK one you have on the passenger side, has a working fog, which is why it appears on the wrong side.

You just need a UK spec drivers tail light cluster with bulb holders and bingo your fog light will be on the drivers side too!!
