Default quick question about gold brembo brakes

I'm trying to figure out how the spring clip on the front calipers is supposed to go.

I think it is supposed to go like this.

I guess it could be like either of these though.



Also could you take a look at the rears and just verify that everything is the way it is supposed to be? The only thing that I'm really concerned about is the black bleeder thing. It is supposed to be point up isn't it?




Thanks for any help.

The second pic is the correct way for the fronts. The rears look fine.

to me it looks like the tabs in the middle of the spring clip will prevent the pads from closing all the way. I guess that is the way it was designed and it just flexes?
