Definatley clockwise.

 Just put the car in Nutral, pull the rad fan & the push the viscous clutch fan shroud to the pass side to get a socket & ratchet on the crank bolt.
 I'd all so pull the d-side t-belt cover to make sure the belt tension is still good..... not to mention you can see the operation of everything spinning visualy.
 All so, I'de pull the coil wires & turn the car over via the ign key to get the oil circulating.

 How long has the car been in storage?
