As was noted in an earlier post, eyepieces don't care if they are horizontal or vertical and good arguements can be made for either (sapce taken up versus ease of seeing which is which)...

I think it would be a good idea to keep the caps on the eyepiece in storage. This protects the glass and coatings. While it may "feel" soft, foam could be abrasive to eyepiece coatings...
