They are twin roosters that came from a Splash Marans and an orangish colored Easter Egger. Would they make Splash colored chicks? Would it matter if the chicks are boys or girls?

It will depend on what you pair them with. Breeding to a blue hen will produce splash, blue and black chicks
paired to a splash you will get splash and blue.
If you breed to a hen that isn't blue/splash all chicks will be blue or black
 
Two twin roosters won't make any chicks. 🤣

Like AusHen said, it depends on what hen you pair them with. Blue roosters (like your boys) paired with a blue hen will give you a 25% chance of splash chicks. With a splash hen you have a 50/50 chance of splash with the other half being blue.
