Default Fan clutch help

Ok guys so I'm just doing my fab clutch now. I had a few questions. First, how do I know how bad the coil on the clutch was? Second, is there supposed to be a putty like material holding the coil? Also, whats the reasong that the fan blades have the weird cut in them? Is that how they are? My truck fan blades arent like that so just wondering. Thanks

Ok so I think I found something that was causing my problem of slightly getting too hot. The fan has a side that is marked "front" but was pointed towards the motor. The front should be facing the radiator correct?

If course... you'd be pushing air the wrong direction.
