Default quick question - oil sep - nipple up or down
My disco was missing the oil seperator. Just got a new one and not sure if it goes in with the nipple end up or down.... one end is flat of course....

I put mine in just a minute ago flat side down. I figured the nipple was just so pliers could yank it out. My original had a nipple on either side.
