Oil Filter Installation

Today I did an oil and filter change on a m176 engine. The oil filter is on the bottom.
It was quit a simple job to do and after completing it I began to question if I installed the filter correctly. I say this because the filter is flat on one side and the other side has a few minor tabs.
which end goes into filter housing?

The filter end with the tabs snaps into the tabs in the bottom of the filter cover.

Thanks I just wanted to be sure I installed it correctly. My OCD was kicking in after the job was done.

Tabs go into filter cap. They snap in. Not possible to install backwards.
