Default Suspension Linkage - Curvy

I've been cleaning/regreasing my linkage and when taking it apart forgot to note which end faces where .

Looked at the Suzuki manual and it states 'marked side should be on the left' (sat on bike)

The linkage has markings on both side (19F and 5). I'm pretty sure the markings refered to is 19F but can anyone confirm before I put it all back together.

Cheers
Ben

Pic of my right hand (exhaust) dog bone. 20F outermost and right way up. On the left side it's the same. 20F outermost and writing right way up.

I thought it only goes in right one way round?

Thanks for checking Pete although my question was about the linkage itself ie the bit the the dogbones bolt onto.

Yes Northy they only go in one way.
After waiting ages for you for an answer (obviously you are doing a bit of work today ), I did notice that the widths of the two sections I was looking at were sligtly different .

Cheers
Ben
