The last one in scope should be called, no ?

As far as I can see this does mean you must have some restrictions: 
if there are 2 type helpers for a type in one unit (something which I would
forbid anyway), they cannot contain a method with the same signature.

But if they are in 2 separate units, the one from the last unit in the uses
clause must be used, just as for regular procedures. The same rules apply, I
would think.
