Default LS5 engine mount heat shield

Can someone tell me which side the engine mount heat shield goes on?
I am assuming there is only a shield on one side, thats all I had.

Thanks, Kevin

It's been too damn cold to go into my garage and look for you and I'm too damn lazy to thumb through the AIM, so here's your answer in a roundabout way.
The answer is : driver's side mount.
The shield should have one "leg" longer on one side and that leg is orientated closest to the firewall when bolted on.
