It's a wash.  Outside mounting allows a wider flap, theoretically
stopping more of the splash when hitting puddles.
Inside mounting follows the tire radius, reducing the trajectory of a
splash.

Leather flaps look more "classic", but supposedly weren't used much in
the past.  More typical were thinner, rubber mudflaps, mounted inside
the fender from what I have seen and read.

For a thick, leather mudflap such as the VO; I think you'll be better
off mounting it on the outside of the fender.  The thick, leather
ridge would accumulate debris and would also lessen tire/fender
clearance when mounted inside the fender.
