LT1 Water Pump Drive?
Hello!
Guys I have had an electric water pump on my car for over 4 years now. I am replacing it with a new conventional water pump. I do not remember the direction the lip faces on the drive (pictured below). Is it toward the pump or toward the timing cover?
Thank you for your help in advance!

Oh **** I did this the other day and it never even dawned on me to look at that! I think I flipped it around a couple times til the water pump seated but I never paid attention to that! I guess we'll see if I have any leaks or anything down the road but it seems ok.

Which way?
Shoebox has an exploded view of the water pump assembly and it shows the lip facing the motor. Im about to put my opti in on monday and need to know the correct way. Can someone give me an answer? Thanks
