Bob,
         It's not terribly critical as replacement pistons come without the 
relief. However, the relief is meant to be oriented facing toward the 
direction the rotor rotates.Sorry, that's confusing. Have the relief facing 
downwards at about 45:. The idea is that the relief is at the leading edge 
of the caliper as the rotor rotates.
         Hope that helps... now I'm confused!
         Peter
