Is your motor a 1926 by chance? 1927 would have seen the arrival of the A-35. I don’t know if that one came in a bronze version.
Re the backwards/upside down pistons, have seen it numerous times. I suppose its easy to forget which way the pistons ought to be installed if the assembler flips the crankshaft upside down and looses track of which end is up.
This is a Johnson BN that had the same problem
The next day it took me out on the lake. I think they are extra grateful after you fix them.

He's livin' in his own private Idaho..... I hope to go out quietly in my sleep, like my grand-dad did..... and not screaming, like the passengers in his car...
