The reason I developed a habit of installing them on the split side is that when I started building engines it was not always possible to get little end bolts of the correct length making it a very tight installation when using standard sized pistons, the split allowed for these over-length bolts to (just) go in.
If there is an engineering reason why they should go the other way around it would be interesting to know and, if so, how the three bearing engine differs.
