Summary: 

I believe that the carousel spins on a fore-aft axis, with the pod
bay and bridge forward (away from the engines) of it. I would put
HAL aft (toward the engines) of the carousel, myself. The pictures
show the bridge above (if the antenna is "up") the pod bay, with
their decks "horizontal". Note that the book of 2001 gives the carousel
spinning on a vertical axis, occupying the space between the 
"tropic of cancer" and the "tropic of capricorn" (Clarke's terminology).
