apk-size for `api […]` vs `implementation […]` dependencies

i know that adding an Android dependency (for example OkHttp) as api 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.11.0' in one of my app modules will make it available to other modules when included.
This removes the need to add implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.11.0' in the other modules.
Is there any difference in the resulting APK size to have each module include the dependency separately as implementation [...] instead of just once as api [...] in a module that other app-modules depend on.
These links describe the compilation-visibility differences but not whether or not there is any difference in the resulting APK.
