Steering head bearing parts confusion

Hey guys,
just replacing the steering head bearings on my 2011 ec300.
Now, the bearings that were ordered from LINK international were incorrect, so reordered with gas gas spares in sydney and the bearing numbers were as follows:
upper - BE25610008 which is the 30205 bearing
lower - BE250610008 which is the 320/28X

I am just after confirmation as Ive read elsewhere that the 30205 is the lower and the 320 is the upper ? Ive installed them as per gas gas spares part numbers. 30205 as upper and 320 as lower. The bottom slid on really easy after placing the stem in the freezer and the bearing in the oven?everything feels ok, I just can't remember the top bearing sitting quite so proud on the stem.

Confirmation that I've got them the right way around would be great
Thanks
 
double checked against the 2011 parts list and it shows the BE25610008 as the upper bearing part number so I should be correct ?..should ;)
 
Ok, I can confirm that the 30205 bearing is the upper with an internal diameter of 25mm and a height of 16.25mm
The lower bearing is the 320/28x with an internal diameter of 28mm and a height of 16mm.
