 Solution

The two crossings of $j,h$ make their full anyon monodromy. For a transparent anyon $h$, this is the identity, so that pair of crossings can be removed together. No single-crossing exchange phase, and no topological spin from a twist, is introduced.

After this removal the upper and lower anyon fusion trees differ only in their intermediate labels. In the physics normalization of anyon diagrams, successive split-fuse bubbles give the Kronecker deltas ${\delta }_{bf}$ and ${\delta }_{cg}$. The remaining closed normalized state has norm one. Hence, for the admissible labelings of a,In particular, every admissible diagram satisfying the label matching in a evaluates to $1$. There is no factor $d_a$ here: the source explicitly permits the physics normalization of anyon diagrams, in which a closed normalized state has value $1$.
