rods orientation question
Hi there!
A bought Eagle ESP H-beam rods (CRS612503D) for my Chevy LQ4 with stock crank, which has undercut journal fillets.
I noticed that rods have one side of the bearing bore more heavily chamfered than the other side.
Please tell me, is it important on which side should be the more chamfered side of the rod? I assume that the more chamfered side looks toward the crank journal fillet and the less chamfered side looks toward the other rod on the crank journal.
Please help me!
Thanks!

Thank you both for your answers.
In meantime I found this thread which confirmed my theory:
