Even if the lube hole clocking is incorrect, it would take much longer IMO (years) before the main shaft seal starts to leak due to insufficient lubrication. Clocking for the clutch connector don't matter as long as your harness is long enough to reach it. If you are not leaking refrigerant, clocking is not your problem.

Here's some Photobucket pics in posts #42 - 44 dissembling R4 compressor of the lube hole and how it's marked by an X. This was from many years ago when I took apart an R4. If your's has the x at 12 o'clock on the aluminum seal carrier/ cover, it is clocked correctly.
