Hi

The brake lever/actuator arm has a slight twist so that viewed from above the axis of the ball on the end is at right angles to the brake cable. I have a feeling that modern reproductions are not handed in this way.

From memory the cotter pin (uk parlance) has a taper angle of about 15 degrees, so reversing it will alter the angle of the brake lever by 30 degrees.
