Default 107 JE Pistons question

Usually the larger cut out is for the intake side. On my JE 107 Pistons the valve cut out is the same. Is there a trick on piston orientation or are these universal?

With both cut outs the same it doesn't matter. The only other thing that would affect it if the pin bore was offset.

I don't know if you can see it but the sheet says pin diameter .927. 23.55mm
pin length 2.500 63.5mm
