P.3 of the tech manual clarifies which is front, rear, right, left, etc. Standing at the rear of the car looking forward - right, left - Flywheel or flexplate end of engine is the front. For setting the timing however, there is a grove on the timing pulley that syncs with number 6, the left rear, and the easiest to get a timing light coil on to so you don't have to fuss with trying to get to the number one wire.
