Except the OD marking on the figures on the right is
backwards from Gunner's convention. To my way of thinking
that OD marking is more consistent with the typical
representation of angular contact bearings in the middle
figures.

some bearings just use a dot or circle to mark the alignment points. It
depends on the manufacturer.
