Tri-Z 250 left side crank seal direction

[rmcollector]

This may seem like a silly question, but I just put in new crank bearings and seals in a 85 Yamaha Tri-Z 250 and wondering if someone can confirm if I have the left side crank oil seal in the correct direction... or does it go yellow side in first? Has been a long time since I opened up a motor and want to make sure before I put it back together. Appreciate any help. Thanks.

Meant to say black side in first. I believe I have it in correctly...but want to double check.

How's the rebuild coming? I am planning to dig into mine this summer, just nervous about parts being such slim pickins. :beer
