The shape of the holes in the side of the case for the R190 and R380/390 is the same to allow the transfer of the poppet assembly to the other side in the event that you want to route your octo from the other side.
If you have a newer version of the R190 or R380/390 you will also want to swap the plug in the aspirator in the valve housing to the aspirator hole on the opposite side of the valve housing as well. If you have an older model both aspirator holes will be unplugged. The plug was added to aspirator on the "bottom" side of the valve housing to meet EN freeflow requirements.
The G500/G550/S600 and G250 cases are not reversible as the holes on either side of the case are shaped differently. The inlet side of the case uses a square hole to hold the air barrel in position and prevent it from turning while the adjustment side of the case is round to accomodate a rotating adjustment knob assembly.
