Transmission crossbar orientation?(pic included)

I swear I do this every time I have the transmission mount out, what is the correct orientation for this thing? I remember seeing some people say there is a cut out for the exhaust but the pics I've seen of that look different than what I have. Mine has a small cutout that doesn't go all the way across the crossbar like I've seen other pics of. Is the cut out on mine for the exhaust or a cutout for driveshaft clearance?

Flashlight placed for orientation reference, is flashlight front of vehicle or back?

Well, based on other pictures I see mounting holes on the bottom of the cross bar for the factory transfer case skid. With those bolt holes orientated to the back, the notch is for the exhaust, mystery solved.

If my picture even shows up...
