Of the 16 roller lifters in my '86 318, 11 or 12 were oriented with the hole in the lifter body up, the others with it down. Either orientation resulted in the same wear pattern on the lifter body. Consider the flat tappet lifter; it rotates constantly. That same hole is continually moving. As long as the groove that the hole is in is pressurized by oil, the lifter functions.
As for the orientation of the hole in the top of the lifter, isn't it in the middle of the cup?
