Ideally you'd like the body of the diode laying up against the plastic body of the transistor.

Just one problem. The old part had really long leads. Extending them to reach the holes in the circuit board is a chore, but doable.

The end of the MV1Y with the tiny color dot is the cathode, same as the end marked with a band on a glass diode.
