Default Orientation of Eibach Front Sway Bar - Need Help

Long story short: Needed to replace my front SPL endlinks which had developed excessive play. Removed the sway bar and installed the new links. Set the sway bar aside. Decided to grease the sway bar bushings while the bar was out. Went to re-install the bar and couldn't remember how it was oriented. Proceeded to install the bar. Adjusted the length of the endlinks as needed to ensure proper fit as outlined in the SPL instructions. The end result is shown in the photos. Note that the front of the bar sits higher than the bottom of the oil pan. Not sure if this is the proper orientation. I suspect that if I flipped the bar it would sit lower than the oil pan. I can't remember how the bar was oriented before I removed it. All I can offer is that the Eibach label printed on the bar is upright (... and matches the label on the rear bar), which may indicate that the orientation is correct; however, I'm looking for advice. I think the key is the orientation of the bar relative to the oil pan. Thanks in advance for your input.
