Hi

pin 1 is at the dot. Pin 4 is down, right. This pin is ground. Pin 5 is the output, upper right.

clock sits correctly (there needs to be a wire jumper under the PCB to connect the pin under the corner with the "T" of the word Tent to connect to the positive lead coming from the regulator (the lower of the two long jumpers you have on top of the PCB).

The caps positive lead should also be oriented to the trace coming from the lower jumper, just the way you have marked it on the image. Or use some non-polar Blackgates and you don't have that problem ;-)
