The crank may, or, may not, be marked. It is always best to measure them. The machinist will do it. There were also two different sizes from the factory. Piston choice should be made on quality first. If they are good, (measure to spec with a proper micrometer), I would go with the ones with the highest dome (most volume in the part above the top of the cylinder. This will give the highest compression (a good thing). Do not worry about the gas causing problems, the compression will not be above the use of today's regular fuel. Be careful with piston ring end gap, and skirt to sleeve clearance to assure a tight good engine. Use the book.
Good assembly awaits.
