Sit 1 - As a general rule, wingmen officiate the neutral zone on their side of the ball. But that said, I think formation and where the ball is spotted could also be a factor. Say the ball is spotted on the inbound spot nearest you and the LJ has a split end on his sideline. Who is closer? That is a time where your partner may appreciate the help. This is something that wingmen can discuss prior to the game so each has an understanding as to how the other works.
Turn the situation around - what if you had told a DE on your side he was "OK" and the LJ had thrown his flag for encroachment. Would you think the LJ was over officiating?
Sit 2 - I agree with Bulldog, you were probably officiating the wrong area if you saw that foul.
