Default forgot the order, mixed up now

I pulled the motor and left the rockers and pushrods aside in a tray with oil. After a few weeks, I went back out and started to move stuff around, and lost the order on the rockers and don't know which was the back of the motor and which was the front. Also the pushrods got moved around and don't match with their rockers now.

Is that going to be an issue? I'm basically rebuilding the bottom end and putting in new lifters and cam also. Can I just put the pushrods back on and rockers back on in any order?

Agreed. It will be fine. Pushrods and rockers aren't "match critical". As long as you aren't using mixed length rods.

Should be fine, keeping them in order makes it easier to identify problem areas but should not hinder anything in this case.
