Regarding direction of oiling slot/groove/channel;

Top or bottom – You obviously don’t want it ending where the bushing is exposed to air. That’s why i say don’t cut the groove the full length of the new bearing. You want the end to be on the crankcase side, as that is the opening to help the oil get directed upwards between the crank journal and bearing surface.

if its the direction of the spiral you’re referring to, it probably doesn’t matter so much.

Hope this helps.

best,
