Any ideas??

If I was you I would ask either the counterman at a parts house, or
most any mechanic.

In a comparable situation with an inboard/outboard, I noticed the lip
seals were arranged to close the lip in the direction of greater
pressure, or undesired liquid flow.
But I have seen advice that where there is space for several stacked
lip seals, one could place at least one facing both possible flow
directions.
