Yes it went back ok and there is a locating nipple I'm think it may of slipped out while putting caliper on other side is fine but I'm not mechanic and never done rear brakes before

if you wound the piston all the way back in then that's fine, the nipple should line up with one of the slots in the piston, as it went back on ok then chances are it was lined up.
still say it will probably be one of the slides.
