It's entirely possible my diagram is wrong!

However, I suspect you might have an early CS basket fitted to a G5 sprocket. In which case, your arrangement should work.
I don't think it's especially critical: mine ran with a reversed 9-plate CS pack in a CSR clutch - and it worked perfectly.
No drag, no slip and nice light action...
