Your engine spins CCW when looking at it from PTO side (left), like most other engines of the type.

I have made the spin backwards without any damage to the engine at all. Just in case you want to use one on each side. That is on the two cycle engine weed eaters. I expect that they are all the same there is nothing to require them to spin in a specific direction except the way the rewind is mounted.
