Default torque converter & flex plate alignment

I have a 1968 302 V8 which I pulled from the car for rebuild. When removing the torque converter and flex plate from the engine I failed to mark their position with respect to each other. Will this cause me grief during reassembly? What course of action should I take? Thanks.

Don't worry about it. It's no big deal. There should be a hole in the flexplate to access the drain plug in the converter at all four positions.

The last one I did only had one hole for the drain plug.
