Hey guys. I just got my new engine block today and try to get the pin clip on the piston pin. Any special way to do that before I do something wrong? I am having difficulties getting them back in..

I usually walk (push on them all around in a circular fashion) them into the piston clip groove with a piece of hard plastic or a dull screwdriver.
Start by getting one end of the clip started in the hole and hold it there with your thumb. With your other hand, use the smooth poking tool of your choice to work the rest of the clip into the hole. Try your best to not scratch the hole with the tool.
