No, but you did not indicate if you have a 1.9 or 2.1.

I only have 1.9 Ansa mufflers here to look at.  The flanged end with
additional bracing on the flanges goes towards the catalytic converter.  The
none-braced flanged end is for the tailpipe.

I haven't seen the 2.1 Ansa, so I can't say.

Also, the flange for the tailpipe side is more "rounded" to conform to the
shape of the tailpipe's flange.
