BBs come offset to the right, left and symmetrical. When shopping for a replacement check the spindle dimension specs carefully and you should be able to find a match. BTW- the spindle offset doesn't matter by itself. What counts is where the cranks end up. Measure chainring and arm tip clearance of both cranks to see how far in either side can go. When shopping do not try to get clearance super tight, because there's variation in how far the cranks go on the tapers and you can come up short.
