The One way works, but I didn't grease or oil it. Maybe I didn't fit the upper tray properly? The rubbing is very slight anyway and there is no sign of wear on the belt. :-)
So the reverse one way isn't recommended? ok
Reverse Hub means you will have no rear brakes at all.

Ive had the same one way issue as you and one issue was the e clip came lose and the other was due to the bearing i used instead of the thrust bearing between the pulleys. Sometimes you need to improvise as i find having zero slop left and right on the layshaft (almost zero) saves the belt. I used to use a hyper clutch with a bearing in the early 90's in between the pulleys and took the e clip out and made a difference but using the mk1 layshaft and zx i found the thrust bearing better.

The one way when the layshafts fitted correctly when tightend takes the one way option away. I prefered a lock nut rather than the kyosho allen key nut as the thread lock screwed on backwards did a better job. Im now intreagued as the only other option is the bearing surrounding the oneway or hub has collapsed giving far too much slop.
