I have a K301 12hp that has a broken rod. I haven't taken the engine apart yet. I don't have a garage so I would like to have the parts and do it in one day. I am seeing that there are 2 types of rods, the short dipper and the long dipper. I know you can tell by the serial number but the sticker on the engine is unreadable. Is it anywhere else on the engine? Is there a way to tell what dipper I have without opening the engine up?

The tractor is a 100 that had the engine replaced with a 12hp in the 80's. It is most likely an engine for a Cub Cadet.
