Re: direction
EDIT. I take that back. It depends on what model year & type of ECM/calpak you're working with.

Re: direction
Is there not a notch in chip and a notch in socket? Align them. I have placed in backwords and no issues developed other that the CE light told me something wrong.

Re: direction
The notch determines direction depending on what you have.

I think in your case (don't know what you have yet) the notch faces to the outside, away from the other chips on the calpak.
Like was said, the CEL will let you know if it isn't in right.

Re: direction
Do you have a Moates adapter? If so the notch goes towards the outer of the ECM with any vacant sockets to the outside
