    I see there’s a slight taper on
    the inside of the rings and I have no idea which
    way to re-install

    I just got new rings from Otto’s for a 7.5 Evinrude 1957. The instructions say install with bevel up. To be sure I searched "piston ring bevel" and found five manufacturers who all say "up".
    Iam assuming that up on a horizontal cylinder is toward the plug. :0
