It may be hard to see, but the top ring outer face will be dead square to the bore, to sit flat against it. The second ring will have a tapered outer face... installed so it scrapes oil down the bore towards the crankshaft.

thanks for the reply I was confused with the black rings being on top when unpacked thought they were packed in order of fitting as the oil rings were at the bottom of the package  thanks once again DD
