LT1 T56 PP orientation? Yellow dot?

My new LT4 Valeo PP has a yellow dot on it. Old PP had a dot too. Can the PP go on any which way or does it have to be orientated to the flywheel a certain way? My OE PP/ FW combo doesn`t really have any matching paint marks/dots that match each other. Service manual says nothing about them having to be being matched up any way. BTW, I got a Fidanza aluminum FW= no corresponding marks.
-Thanks!

I called Valeo. The guy said the yellow dot means that is the light (weight) side of the PP. My machine shop is going to match the old FW and PP to the new FW and PP.

Paeople claim there is a dot on the FW to match up with this yellow dot, I have yet to see one.

I have always just thrown it on and been totally fine. I would not worry about it.
