I highly recommend you use this source, which you have listed, and not the automatic generators:

Purdue Owl, https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/mla_style/mla_formatting_and_style_guide/mla_formatting_and_style_guide.html

The generators have misled you on your citations, both of these are errors:

Rufus, Quintus Curtius, et al. ...

and

Stone, Oliver, et al. ...

et al. is for 3 or more authors; but both Oliver Stone, and also Quintus Curtius Rufus are single individuals.
