Tail Shaft bushing orientation

I have an '87 740 turbo that I am replacing the tail shaft bushing and seal. I have the tail shaft off. The old bushing does not have a hole, just grooves in the bushing. The new bushing has a hole and grooves. What is the correct orientation for the bushing. Logic tells me that the hole should align with one of the two grooves in the tail shaft. One of the two grooves in the tail shaft is larger than the other. I just want to make certain that I get it right since I am also replacing all of the universals and center support bearing.

Thank you!
