Default Reinstalling con rods question

So I didn’t pay attention to this minor detail but I noticed the new bearings for the con rods sit to 1 side. Which way do these go on to the crankshaft? Thanks for any help!

In the manual, marks on the rods.

Arrows on the piston point towards the front and the con rod caps have a slight chamfer on one side, the chamfers face each other for the pistons on the same crankshaft journal.

The sides w/o the bearing gap stay together, the sides with the gap go toward the counter weights on the crank.
