Default NEED Help Please: Which way does the piston go on the rod?

Which way are the pistons orientated on the rods. My machine shop took them off the rods and does not remember which way the oil squirters go. If you know which way they go let me know asap.

Thanks guys

I may not be any help here but most pistons have a little notch on the top, which should point to the front of the engine. I'm not sure if the 2.3T's have these or not though.
