Default 427 Crankshaft Rotation

Good morning all !! I currently have a 427 crankshaft I'm working with, and wonder if anyone could shed some light on whether it's a forward or reverse rotation crankshaft. From what I'm able to find out, the only difference I think is the direction of the knurled slots (grooves ?) on the back end of the crankshaft where the oil seal contacts. The grooves are arranged similar to the configuration of a 'left hand' thread -

<<< Front of crank / -(direction of grooves)

ANY help would be greatly appreciated !!

Thanks, Tom
