water pump seals

I'm replacing my water pump seals on my2017rc this weekend but have gotten conflicting directions on which way the seals face when installing. The flat side was originally facing inward which is opposite of what I usually see on motors. Does anyone know for sure?

"Open side facing inward"

It seems you are right, and the original mounting was wrong...

Thanks for the confirmation.
