Maurice,

If I look at the seal it is an U-shape and cylindrical on the outside. It falls over the outside of the steel plate with the U groove. Because it is cylindrical on the outside diameter it shouldn't matter which way you install it? It is only to hold the grease in so not very critical if it doesn't seal a 100%. It is called: Retainer, grease, shaft (split ring). I have a couple NOS in my workshop but will not be there till Saturday. If you want I can have a look at them and get back to you.

Cheers,
