As long as you've got enough azimuth adjustment to accomodate the magnetic declination it makes no practical difference, and I'd be inclined to align the pier with the fence - otherwise significant other will tell you it's crooked.
Turning on my pedant mode you will want to align your mount with the south celestial pole, not the south galactic pole. This will improve tracking considerably. Pedant mode off.
Cheers,
Andrew
