No, on an normal aspirated engine the short side radius is always where the greatest air speed and velocity will be found. On the flow bench, the long side can have a pitot tube introduced and you'll find no velocity, or a slight vacuum.

This is why I laugh when I look at the arrangement that some out of work practical Engineer did in his Garage, using a vacuum cleaner blower motor to blow over objects, in an attempt to design a component.

The short side is where the men are separated from the boys, and it doesn't mater what it looks like, all that matters occurs on the flow bench.
