So, to be honest, I'm not very experienced with the ennegram, and my understanding of it is quite limited.
I've taken the test a few times, and I've always gotten.a type 4 or 2. From what I've read that's pretty common for INFPs. I once got 5w4, which I've disregarded because that's just a HUGE stretch.
I can see myself in both 2w1 and 4w5 honestly, but I'm not quite sure how to properly type myself. Can i have some advice on self typing, or maybe link me to some further reading? I'd really appreciate it!!

And no, it is not always easy to tell bewteen types, but between 4 and 2, it shouldn't be the most difficult thing in the world. At least I do not think it is rocket science.

Both your Socionic and MBTI type are more common in type 4.
