i took out my w58 to seal the oil leak. but i forgot which direction the rear mounting bracket should go. i temporally installed it pointing to the front (pls see pic below). did i installed it correctly or did i have it backward?

It should only fit one way. The side that goes towards the exhaust is slanted where it bolts to the car. So if it bolted up flat, you got it right.

thx for the info. it actually fits both way. unless you mean when installing the transmission back to the car, then the bracket should fit only one way. i have tried installing the bracket to the transmission, both way fits.
so is my current installation or no?
