Not that I'm aware of. With two umpires on the line, all go to the umpire that is on the "open side".
In 3-man, with one umpire on the line and the other in the middle some mechanics go to the "open side" whether that umpire is on the line or in the middle; some go to the umpire "on the line" whether that umpire is on the open side or not.
