Looking at the bentley, they show the wide part of the joint against the boot 
and the narrower part, which I'll call the groove, going into the drive flange.

Some of the photos, but not all, show a groove close the larger end, close to 
the boot.

So I guess it comes down to what Muir meant by the "groove."
