[Mgs] Radiator (metal) fan blades, which way?

[Simon Matthews]

Bill,

Think of it this way:
When looking at the front of the engine (from in front of the car), it
turns clockwise. When turning clockwise, the blades need to pull air
through the radiator, which means that the leading edges will be close
to the radiator and the trailing edges will be close to the engine.

around the 6 blade metal fan should be attached. The metal fan blades are cut
such that there is a "cut away" side to each blade.  Should this "cut away"
side be to the front (radiator side) or to the back (block side)?
