Quick Choke Question

Okay, this one is easy. I assume since the choke is basically a wire wound, the direction of leads is not important. Correct?

Your correct, it doesn't matter what lead goes where. A choke is an inductor, but inductors aren't polarized.

Yes but the coil does have a start and finish.

Or is it a finish and a start? I mean... I personally like to start my mazes at the finish and work towards the start

The inductor only has a polarity when DC current is flowing through it.
