Two of my SMP clients (v7.3.6) are working on the same WU, P8567 (R1, G6, C317). They were assigned approx. 50 mins apart, about 4 hours ago. Any action required on my part other than letting them run to completion?

Let them run to completion. There are other examples in the database where the same WU has been assigned to the same folder and they both received full points. This work unit appears to be one of those.

As long as you did not clone the F@H install from one system to the other, then you will be okay. Usually when two copies of a WU get sent out they end up going to different usernames. But as long as the machine ID's are different, they are considered two separate contributors.

The log file on each should show a like PRCG number plus an additional unique number.
