Bert,

The only clue I can give you is the piston.

If you have not "brilloed" the piston and it still has carbon and varnish on it, you can usually trace, which side was facing the exhaust port(s).

That side of the piston ran hotter than the side that faced the intake bypass ports. it will generally have more varnish and carbon on it. The port lineout may be traceable.

If the rod is still attached to the piston, that problem would be solved as well. If not, the oil hole should face the pickup side, as you trace the route the bottom end goes through as the engine turns.

I am not familiar enough with this engine to know if the rod has any built-in offset.

Sending a clear picture of the rod may help (don't disassemble it if it is assembled).
