Installing new side seals. Nissan part. Do two lips face the block or the crankshaft? These are one piece seals from Nissan. Thanks

Tom Monroe "How to Rebuild your L motor" pp.118, "Oil the side seals and insert them into their grooves with the lips pointing toward the block."

Yep, I read that but then it goes on to talk about inserting the "nails" which is a different type seal. I think you and they are right though, the lips should probably point to the block. Thanks
