With the flat side ( 2nd photo) facing the backplate, I would give it a try...the other side (1st photo) shows a not that smooth surface with which sealing may not be perfect.

I agree.. the smooth-side looks good.. and should be tried facing/against the sealing "mouth" of the venturi-tube. Once the retaining circlip is properly installed; you "shouldn't" be able to BLOW any air past the reed when blowing from the "clip-side". You "should" be able to SUCK air past the reed. This is how the engine meters fuel on every stroke.. and it has to be a positive on-off action.. for the engine to continue running on fuel from the tank.
