Question re check valve

Hope someone can help. Replacing vacuum hoses with silicone and wasn't paying enough attention re which way one check valve goes in. It is the silver check valve between the throttle body and the solenoid valve (purge control) near the oil filler. One side of the check valve has a shoulder the other side is chamfered. Does anybody know which way this goes into the line.
Thanks

If you look at the middle section of the check valve, you will see an arrow that points one way. Look at the vacuum diagram and check (no pun there) to see which way it's supposed to go.
