Excellent point. Somebody in a post down below mentioned pictures which can be helpful, too.
Something I always do is bag up and LABEL!! small parts. I use brown paper candy and lunch bags, but Zip-Locs work good, too. Then I can wind up with all my head nuts in one bag, the nuts and washers for the manifold in another with the bolts and/or nuts to mount the carb to the manifold in another. In the same line as your suggestion on keeping the rods and caps straight, I apply that to main caps, lockplates and nuts, as well, each set getting their own candy bag, LABELED!! for their position, and the lot of them going into a larger lunch bag to keep them together. For things that look alike but come out in order, like push rods, I label them individually for where they were before they go in the bag.
It may be overkill and a little obsessive (potty filter wouldn't let me use the ana- word!), but there's an AWFUL lot of 3/8" and 5/16" bolts on one of them things and it sure helps when putting things back together to have the right bolts of the right length and any nuts to go with them when you go bolting things like oil pumps, distributors, governor, . . . back onto a motor.
