It's my understanding that left and right are determined from sitting in
the car.  Thus the driver side is the left (in Left side drive countries)
and the passenger is the right.

I got this from my experience with planes.  I assumed it was standard with
cars also.

So, even if the engine doesn't have much of a right or left side in a 164,
the cars itself does.
