Default 1967 Chevelle Front Brakes

I pulled apart the front suspension and steering to get everything powder coated. I'm in the process of putting it all back together when I discovered that the front backing plates (drum brakes) are not the same. They aren't symmetrical. Now I don't know which one is right and which one is left. Does anyone know which is which?

With no responses I decided to see if I could figure it out. That is when I noticed a difference in the mounting of the wheel cylinders. If anyone is curious I'll post some pictures in my garage.

I tried to look under my 68 el camino for you but found it too buried in crap to see anything!! Picks are always nice to finish off your thread.
