14b Mechanics

I'm sure we've all seen the 14b's, and i've removed the one in the GSX about 4-5 times and done my fair share of looking at it and checking it out. My main question is the turbo is a gravity fed oil feed, and the WP or normal flow of the water cools the turbo as well. BUT, with the GSX one of them will be sitting as it normally does in the cars, manifold plate up, and the other manifold plate down. Will this matter for the oil feed for the one that will be upside down? I havn't actually taken the thing completely apart and looked at the internals. Just want to make sure there's nothing inside that moves the oil through the system in one direction. Something someone asked today and i couldn't answer.

My understanding is the oil just flows through and lubricates(cools) the turbo some without any internal fins or groves to move the oil through... right?
