Default OS.46-LA - Putting it back together...

Is there a right way around for the piston and connecting rod? Assuming I didn't mark them before removal, is there a way to tell by looking at them which way around they go? Con rod top & bottom, front & back. Piston front & back.
Tnx -

If the piston's not marked with an arrow on the top, it can go in any way. The arrow would point to the exhaust port. The connnecting rod will have a particular way to go. The big end will have one side with the brass bushing slightly chamfered, and one side machined flush. The chamfer goes towards the crankshaft counterweight. The flush side towards the rear cover.
