Which direction do I put these new pistons in? There is a blue arrow on top then blue writing on the rod.

If the blue arrow faces the timing chain, the blue writing on the rod is on the right.

when i tore down my engine, the rod end tangs were facing away from the timing chain, but you put the F or forward mark towards the timing.
