Yeah, Ive done it Don. I spend some time with a mic, and could not find a single difference between sides, other than the groove.
The older big twins have the groove as well, I always just pick the better side for forward, if im not putting a NOS one in.
The groove is simply to mark forward gear so ive been told by some of my older mechanic friends that worked for OMC in the 50s. I haven’t seen it ever referenced in manuals? Or is it somewhere, not sure.
