I guess it’s dependent on the candidate pool, but how big of a knock is it to have small mistakes in case studies (i.e. calling a slide a downside case when the output is the base case)? Is this something to be upfront about when presenting it?

I believe it depends on the firm as well. Did a case for an interview once and did a very obvious mistake. Interviewer called me out for it, and I straight up admitted that it was a mistake, and said what it should have been instead. At the end of the day, we're all humans and sometimes all firms want to see is that you understand and learnt from your mistake.
Don't sweat it too much.
