Default Did t-belt job but...

My car recenty just hit 150,000 miles (parts replaced were in good shape to my surprise). Did the timing belt job this weekend, but just realized after I turned the eccentric roller clockwise instead of counter-clockwise. So far i've driven the car a few miles. Everything seems normal. I removed the belt covers and everything looks fine, no rubbing/excess slack issues. The only thing I can think of is the belt angle might have slightly changed coming off the crank/LH Cam gear. (Looked ok when turned manually) Would anyone know the consequences of this?

If you did everything else properly (used crankshaft and camshaft tools, loosed camshaft pulleys, 5 mm spacer at the hydraulic tensioner and proper torque at the eccentric tensioner) turning it counter clockwise wont make any difference.
