Eh, unless you've got something significantly different from what I've seen, there should only be one way that it can sit that you'll be able to get the saddle level. Also, there are generally some measurement markings on the rear of the seatpost...

If there's writing on the side, align it so the writing reads properly. Usually that's a good way of doing it.
Applies to front hubs too, unless there's a one sided cone locknut or something that differentiates left and right sides of a front hub. And, no, it doesn't matter from a technical point of view for a front hub.
