Lifter oil port placement
I'm putting new lifters in my bike and the one I'm taking out have the oil port facing away from the cylinders. A video I watched says they should face towards the cylinders. Can anyone give me some more advice on this?

Doesn't matter as pressurized oil fills recessed lifter area
