Hmmm Don’t see it. The sweep is aimed back as your rears are above.

So both of them are wrong?
think as your rotors are spinning. the slots start at the inside and go out. i believe that is backwards. should start from the outside to in

Should be a label on each rotor, or a R and L designation on each box.

Slot should be swept back at "top" (outer edge) in the turn direction.

Mine pictured above is the rear driver side turning counter clockwise.

Pretty sure these cheap chines cast rotors are not directional. Vanes are either or, not directional.

You would get directional cooling vanes on normally on the very large and meaty expensive aftermarket rotor’s.

I hope I just didn’t lay out attractant for oldfart LOL
