I just recieved an email from a tech at leupold. I don't know where that other board with the contacts rotated 45 degress came from, but this was the response from leupold.
"No, the second-generation orientation of the silver contact is the same but the clear tape over the brass-colored portion extends over and to the end of the green circuit board in the rear, whereas on the first-generation the clear tape is clipped at the edge of the brass-colored portion and does NOT extend over and to the end of the green circuit board in the rear."
Here are some pictures showing the new version vs the old. The one on the top is the old style sticker. The one on the bottom is the new style sticker.
