Default Does the Crower Rod have to face certain way?

I know some rods that have notches or some sort of marking that indicates which end is supposed to face the exhaust side, but the Crowers I have, have no markings- does it matter, then?
Thanks

Honda has there notches on the exhaust side, but you dont need to do it with aftermarket rods. But by habit I still put them on the exhuast side.

not a bad idea to keep things uniform, either.

And does anyone know why the stock honda rod bearing notches have to be on the exhaust side?

I just got my wrist pins pressed in and they posistioned the rod bearing tangs or notches on the intake side? does it matter since i just got the rod resized and i am using new bearings???

thanks

I believe it has to do with the rod oiling on the oem but not positive
