With the chamfer against the crank radius, the bearing tangs will be facing in towards the cam. On older rods the oil hole will be on the tang side also. The rods are slightly offset so it does matter how they go in besides just the chamfer and tangs. You cannot turn them around or they will bind. The pistons have 4 valve reliefs so as long as the notch is forward, the piston offset will be correct.
