not really sure exactly what your talking about when u say slot. ive only had mine apart once and what i do know is the paddle has a bolt hole and the hole needs to line up with the retainer bolt

I always mark them and put them back according to the marks.
If I did lose track of it I would put it facing so it scoops oil up.
I don't really think it matters.
