Which way is the 1G CAS Trigger Plate supposed to be installed?

I have a 1G CAS Long wire on my 2G setup and just want to make sure the plate is in the correct way.
 
Yup, I cleaned it.

The CAS was sitting in a crate outside for about 6 years. Amazingly it still works but not sure if I put the plate in correctly after taking apart and cleaning and replacing the 4 wires. I can't find any good pics of it installed with the timing mark in relation to the flat on the center bolt hole. Car runs but rough and I want to make sure the plate is in the right way.

Also for clarity this is for the CAM angle sensor not Crank sensor on the 7 bolt.
 
Oriented like this. The two inner slots show you how it goes.

I thought there was one small notch on the disk as well oriented on an odd angle.
I don't see that in your picture though. This is what mine looks like.

Ah I see it now, the second picture has that orientation notch off to the left, which makes sense, mines off to the right. Hopefully explains why it's running rough.

For anyone having the same issue, the link I have in addition to the above photos is how the disc should be installed looking at the CAS with the cover off.

Thanks!!
