Default Backwards srarter? Damage?

So I got the ae starter box. It is setup for ntc3(horizantal flywheel). I changed it to start my mtx-3. But it spuin the wrong way! So afte a few seconds of thinking about what might be causing fuel
to be shooting out of my carb I realised the error I was making.

My question is this: Was I messing up my motor by running it
backwards? It was new and It did not start backwards. After
I changed it it started fine forwards and ran fine. I put 6 tanks
through it and it only quit when it ran out of fuel. But now I have
to suspect it may have been damaged? Or not?
