Gehl cylinder seal question

Hello, recently ordered some seal kits from Baum hydraulics for my Gehl 4515 and one of the piston seals doesn't match what I'm trying to replace. Seal that came in the kit is a one way seal while the original seems bidirectional. Blue one in photo is new; two tone is original.

Contacted Baum and they said they don't have anything like the original. Didn't really provide an alternative or suggestion on the new seal. If I have to use this new seal, have it face the direction for lifting? Additional thoughts?

Are there 2 seals on the piston?

If so the U cups will work, provided they fit the piston grove and bore. Just point the lips away from each other.

But if only one seal, it will need to be like the original.

X2 on H&D Distributors in Dallas. Massive inventory and knowledgeable employees. Just mail them samples, they match them up!
 
There's only one sealing ring on the piston. I'm kind of disappointed in Baum as I've heard decent things about them and ordered from them in the past.
