Drag Link Orientation Question 1970

[BPBP440]

1970 B-Body. I want to ensure I don’t have the drag link flipped.

Should the bend be going away from the sump or towards it. Currently I have it away from.

What happens when you reverse it ? Rather than just give you the answer, you'll be able to figure it out.

Gets a little closer to the sump, but all
kinds of room still. I don’t see an impact either way, but would like it to be “correct”.

Technically it is not a “drag link” but instead a “center link”.
Yours is in correctly.

Yes, so that defined top and bottom, but left / right was still in question. Good now though.
