Behind the neck pull ups

[Lumberg]

I heard that doing narrow grip chinups were for developing the length of the lats and wider grip made the lats wider

Where did you hear that?

Ive heard it from quite a few sources. Mainly the encyclopedia of bodybuilding.
It also seems logical because you are able to bring your arms further down with narrow grip chinups which stresses the lower lats muscles.

That actually makes sense....so best for the lower lats would be close-grip, behind-the-neck pull ups!
