There are a handful of finger picks out there that have an orientation - the Pro Picks designed for resonator playing are about the only ones that come to mind right now. I don't think many players use them for pedal steel.

But most stick straight out and have no orientation. Or am I missing something? I'm not a lefty.

Or are you talking about thumb picks? There are left-handed thumb picks. See, e.g., https://www.elderly.com/collections/left-handed-picks - but they are available many places. Elderly has a nice selection and you can see them on one page.

Dave is right. There are left handed thumb picks. I buy mine from Elderly music. As for the finger picks, just buy a pack of normal fingerpicks and give the right handed thumb pick in the pack to a right handed player.
