I am putting my lower unit together and I have run into a problem, I didn’t take the unit off so I’m not sure how this plastic washer goes. I know it goes on the shifter rod but I’m not sure which way, one side has a grove around it and the other side is flat. Can anyone identify which way it goes in?

I will try to attach pictures.

Thanks Jeff.

Here is a diagram picture, it is part 49 circled in red.

I spoke to a local marine store today and they advised the part goes it flat side up.
