throwout bearing

[shouldaboughtahat]

Howdy. I'm new to this forum but have been reading it for years. I am replacing the clutch in my 88 blazer, but don't know what direction to install the throw out bearing. I took the old throwout bearing out without paying attention. Does the small bump on the bearing sleeve get inserted to the left, into the clutch fork (when facing the engine) or does it face the right - or does it matter?

Thanks in advance for your help and all the info I have absorbed over the past few years.

ive converted my truck to a 465 and all i remember is putting it in so the flat wide surface on the clutch side...if that makes any sense.
