solved my self just changed the field type to relation ship and return post id in and array of the page and then used this code just it case its useful to anyone

  <?php
// get id of current page and store it in $pageid variable
global $post;
$pageid= $post->ID;
//query arguments
$args=
  array(
    'post_type' => 'features'

    );
//set up query with arguments input
  $query = new WP_Query( $args );
// run loop
  if( $query->have_posts() ) : while( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); ?>

     <?php

    $pagelink= get_field('pagelink');
    // get_field(pagelink) returns page id selected in the pagelink field as array with 0 as the key and the page id number as the value, then we store it in pagelink variable
if($test[0] === $pageid){
//if the field pagelink is the same as pageid of current page then
            if (get_field('alignment') === 'left' ) {
               get_template_part('content','leftsided');
             }
             else if(get_field('alignment') === 'right' ) {
               get_template_part('content','rightsided');
             }
}
?>

  <?php endwhile; endif; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
