After definitely looks correct to me.

After, the "cup" in the blade should face the engine.

I'll say "after" too. But it looks like you have a bent blade also.

"after" is the correct way it should be.

ok. that's convincing. What speaks against it is that the mouting flange is at front (where the airflow is), but the cup is much better shovveling this way alright.
i'm just in the process of buying a 7blade flex fanb to improve things a lot.

Any case, the PO installed it wrong and I was stupid enough to copy it :S

thanks all!
