the nut came off that way .its still covered in silicone .before i reassembled i totaly took the dremel to it with a wire wheel and cleaned all that stuff up .
i think the nut has to be that way to grab the perforations in the cap that are to hold the nut from turning .

if it was to be installed flat side down the rounded corners would not grab the cap.look inside the cap and you will see what i mean .

if you cant see it in these pics go to part 1 and look there .

edit= i went and looked at my own pictures in part 1 and yes in part 2 here the nut is on backwards .but this pic is before i cleaned it all up .i cannot be sure if i put the nut back on correctly or not at this point .in any event it failed again and it hit the trash heap .

good eye!
