At least one of the magma furnace's eight edge tiles has to be hanging over magma

build your workshop with the impassible (dark green) tile situated over the magma hole.  If this doesn't make sense let me know and I will take some screenshots for you.

which of these two are the truth?

Both are true - the first is a requirement (any of the 8 border tiles must be hanging over magma), but the second one is a recommendation (by putting the magma underneath the impassable tile, nothing can creep up through that tile or accidentally fall in).

I prefer this method:

"I feel so honored that this new settlement gave me their pick so I can get started. All I have to do is continue this exploratory tunnel straight on until I discover something interesting!"

'Nothing' in this case includes the magma itself, which is very handy to know if your magma delivery system includes a pump tower. Yes, this is something I learnt the hard way.
