Rod Caps, which way do they go on? The rod has a hole on the right of the engine that oils the camshaft (I think). Does the rod cap go on with the oil dimple on the same side as the rod hole or opposite?

Put them on the rods with both bearing notches together, the notch in the piston goes toward the front of the engine.
