CAP installation question

Hey everyone, it's been awhile since I've been here but I got side tracked by two other projects and the warm weather enjoying them. At any rate, I finally ordered all my CAPs for my 1955 GE resto.

Now I've installed many caps in my time from my pinball and arcade game restos, but these caps are a little different looking and I want to make sure In install them correctly.

In my experience, caps matter in what direction they are installed. My question is with the yellow cap in the pic (not my pic BTW) how do I tell what direction to install it?

With some of these yellow caps I got, the one lead is off set, but others it's not. So does the off set lead mean positive?

Is there a general rule such as install the new cap with the writting facing the banded end of the old cap?

Could someone please let me know? Thanks!
