Your kidding right? The element silk screens should indicate where pin 1 is, but usually not with a number. Typically a dot or chamfer in the silk path is used. On through-hole parts Pin one is often square while the other are round. On SMD, often pin one is different from the others (rounded vs squared ends or vice-versa). Most of the pre-existing elements in the library have orientation identifiers. h.
