There should be no real wear on the "cup" so it shouldn't matter. If there's too much wear in the cup surfaces you should replace the whole joint because it'll cause vibration as the inner race rides up and down through the worn spots in the cup during rotation. The CV joint grease is supposed to prevent that. The cup will have some visible wear but, with the boot off and joint dry, you should not feel any roughness when you slide the cup back and forth over the carrier and driveshaft.
IIRC there is a marking on the carrier that should be facing out toward the end of the driveshaft. I also seem to recall that I couldn't fit the circlip on the driveshaft unless the carrier was on the right way. I've done '01 SE and '02 Aero passenger side inner boots and they were both the same.
