con rod problem

Hi   
Just bought vz800 (1997) to turn it into a bobber style,after taking the engine out and finding out what a mess the instant gasket glue has done. I have found that both con rods have the same number 2s on them? is this a problem and the main bearing shell tabs are on the right side and not on the left side and been grind off to fit.

looks like i got a bit wrong in the description saying main bearings when should of been conrod big end shells tab.

Help please does it matter if the con rods have the same number on both,as both have number 2 on. Thank you.

Should be the same.

Do you mean 1 and 2 being the same,or 2 and 2 are the same,
 Cheers merry christmas.
