that groove above is just a oil (lube) capture slot. i dont think it matters,. so long as its on the correct side.
non of the slots mater but only direction of gears and washers.... i dont see it in the factory trans fsm , these issues.
I missed your RTV question, (there should never be RTV here) if found it means others have been here, and explains why the gap you have is too narrow.
to clean off rtv is not easy, ever. it held on Space tiles of the space shuttle and , teflon core liners of Nuclear reactors when first used. back in 60s. (its true purpose)
and now using the correct sealant it wont stick to RTV, i hate RTV, (hard to work with, and rework , slow to dry, and clogs engine bearings..)
I use this. at slow speeds,
walmart now sells a small kit with the adaptor 1/4" arbor. scotch reloc pads/discs/

found it, the cats meow, use variable speed tool run slow. and just get the RTV off and stop.

yes the bread trick, that is so cool, saw a post on that , and was funny, less mess too, bread better than grease... thanks for the reminder...
suzuki bond and even same like named product sold by toy , honda and nissan are not needed.
those OEM names are just re-badged.
