I'm an idiot and I only just found this out, if anyone wants to know how its really simple. Here's an image of how you do it but if the image doesnt work anymore then I'll try explain in text form, sorry if I'm bad at explaining it though.

[Place ___ at x y z]

the ___ is:

 [__ with direction set to ____]

the first __ is:

[Block]

the second ____ is:

[Get block direction at x y z]

Hope this helps!
