Two photos of T-Bird damper pulleys.
As far as I know the damper pulley should fit on either crank. Save the timing pointer from the bottom front of the water pump. They are T-Bird specific and about 1 inch longer than others, to reach the timing mark (at the red arrow) on the back of the pulley.
You may need a 'repair sleeve' for the rear of damper pulley shaft, to provide a good surface for the seal it fits into in the timing cover.
Check the rubber layer between the damper weight ring and the inner hub, if it's cracked and dry it might be time for replacement.
