Rear Suspension question

1997 328i 5-speed.

Okay, this is going to sound really stupid I know, but the little concave bit that goes below the shock mount, does it cave up, as if to cup the shock mount, like so



Or does it cave down, as if to cup the bump stop, like so (item 6)



Either way I got it wrong, I have one pointed one way and the other pointed the other way I swear sometimes I shouldn't be allowed near a spanner.

I would set it so that it cups the bump stop. I cant think a reason to put it the other way.
