Hi Greg,
In the absence of instructions, I *believe* the correct installation is
to always keep any steps pointed down...in order to scrape oil back down
to the sump.

Now I figure the oil rings bevel goes down to allow oil to roll up there. On the other hand, I have no idea which side of the middle ring faces, up or down.
