Yes it does matter. Correct me if Im wrong, but I believe with high performance rods, such as eagle h-beams, the chamfer needs to be facing towards the crank.

Yep, chamfer needs to be towards the counterweight. General rule of thumb is to have the tangs in the rod opposite the valve reliefs in the piston
