Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeMay be, but I don't have one in my hand, but the photos look like it is centered. The repair manual says squirt hole front or rear doesn't matter. The FO-4 actually shows spray from both sides in their illustration. Other engine rebuild manuals show or say hole to front..........so, I guess you just take your pick. Opinion: since it is oiling the skirt, I go with 'it doesn't matter'. Sand on left/right tabs side. But, I have no problem with "put it back the way Ford built it"....that is what I would do, but I still like to understand the "why". Might be like the story of cutting off the end of the ham bone before cooking. Granddaughter asked why her mother cut it off, because my mother did. Asked grandma why she did, etc., etc., and finally the eldest said, "because I didn't have a larger pan". We can't ask far enough back....all dead.
