Setting the user option ‘mail-user-agent’ is (lightly)
documented here:

   (info "(emacs) Mail Methods")

Unfortunately, the user option ‘message-mail-user-agent’ is
not documented in the Emacs user manual, the Gnus user
manual, or the Message user manual.

When you customized these two variables and saved them using
the ‘Apply and Save’ button, then Emacs will have written a 
(custom-set-variables ...) expression to your Emacs
initialization file.  If you look in your Emacs
initialization file, you should find them there.

Because these three variables are user options, each
instance of ‘setq’ should be replaced with ‘setopt’
(see C-h f setopt).  

Or, you could delete them from your .gnus.el and customize
them using the "Easy Customization", as you did for
‘mail-user-agent’ and ‘message-mail-user-agent’.  If you do
that, then Emacs will add your customizations to the
(custom-set-variables ...) expression in your Emacs
initialization file.
