Hello, I have enough roots to pot this cutting, but I'm not sure about the best choice. There are also three new roots starting to grow at the very bottom.
Option 1: pot it with the soil level at the red line. Could this be a problem? I'm thinking about monsteras, which don't like to get the base of the petioles buried in soil.
Option 2: soil level at the purple line or a bit lower.
Option 3: cut it in two at the cyan line and pot the two cuttings with the soil level at the orange lines.
Thanks.

Don’t cut it, just plant the roots under soil. Pic 1
Sometimes I plant mine sideways like this

Option 3 will make a fuller plant.
But you could also train it up a pole.

#2 so you get 2 pieces with both a leaf and roots
