Default Oil expander ring installation direction

I received my engine parts back from the machine shop. They installed the piston rings in the pistons for me but I noticed that the ends of the oil expander rings are pointing down. Are they supposed to point up? Or does it not matter?

Doesn’t matter, as long as they don’t overlap.
