What do you mean by 'larger bump' on one side than the other.  Piston
crown, conrod end?  Did you remove the piston from the conrod?

Workshop manual?
Dealerships with workshops are often helpful.
Could you post a .jpg from a digi-camera?
I often photograph assemblies before dismantling,
solves whether the washer goes under
the arm or under the circlip, sort of queries.
