The distributor can be turned both ways. The rotor however, which I suspect you are asking about, turns clockwise on a small block V8.
It will be at 12oclock stright up.
Cranksaft turns twice for 1 distributor rotation.
Yes. what is the question?- about a sm. block chevy.

Chevy's rotate clockwise but to confirm, remove the distributer cap and have someone turn it over. Hope This Helps. Oilman is correct, it rotates clockwise. I have added a link to the left below that you may find useful. It contains all sorts of specifications for your rare big block 409. Hang on to this engine, as it is extremely rare if it is authentic.
