Question about SMD polarity on some components I accidentally blew off

Hey guys,

I was hoping someone could help me figure out and/or identify the polarity of these SMD components (circled in red)? I believe they’re ceramic and the two CAPS have no polarity, but I’m not sure what the rest of these components are. Believe a couple of them may be some diodes. Any help would be appreciated. These got bumped off when I was removing the HDMI IC Chip. Thanks!

Awesome! Thanks for your quick response! One more thing if you have a minute. I also blew off a couple of choke filters. Do those matter about orientation? Thanks!

Polarity does not matter on those components.

Resistors (The black colored SMD components) just add resistance on a line and pretty much lower the power going past in whichever direction.

The capacitors next to the resistors do not have polarity.
