 he said theres no marking on them at all , he got told that theres no preference to which way they go on !

i was told that there isnt a preference to the direction really, the grooves are to cool the brake pads down due to heavy braking.
The drilled mod is to keep the discs cool.
I had a full set on my old v6 vectra.
Didn't really make much differnce, but they looked the biz

i thought grooves were for the brake pad dust and the gasses to help maintain braking force and efficiency that way

if you look on e bay theres a few sellers who have illustrations showing which side is which ...its easier to look than it is to explain

well i'd have thought the swirl of the groove was going from the inside to the outside if you spin it the direction the wheels turning (it wouldnt be much good if all the dust and gasses were going into the centre of the wheel- if you notice the vents for the twin vented discs are on the outside
