As long as the wrist pin cant protrude from the side of the piston when the rod is slid inside the piston it should be fine.

Unfortunately there's too much sh1te on the telly from the good old US of A and ultimately the Interweb is in American which results in English playing second fiddle.

"Gudgeon Pin" = words used by old people.
"Wrist Pin" = words used by people born since medieval times.

Wrist pin is used by those that watch too much much American drivel  & watch seasons instead of series of telly programMES  ;)

Do you also have rocker panels instead of sills?  ::) https://www.carid.com/articles/rocker-panels.html  :P
