Pulley Help

I have a '76 chevy 350 with a long sytle water pump. It did not come with any pulleys on it. How do I tell if the water pump is standard rotation or reverse??

The pump turns clockwise. Look inside at the impellers through one of the holes. As you turn it clockwise, the ends should be curved towards the direction of rotation (think scoop).
