Question Head gasket orientation

Is the top of the head gasket the side with or without the serial numbers etc. I scoured the 6.0 bible but couldn't come up with which way is up. Awaiting to instal heads but need to know which way is up.
Sure don't want to make a dumb mistake now.

I think you can only install them 1 way with all the holes lining up correctly.
