Lanse If it is a smaller motor the starter more than likely has permanent magnets for the fields (outer) Then the battery voltage goes through the brushes and powers the armature. These type can not be reversed.
If the field magnet is powered (wire going to it) then it could be reversed. The trouble your going to run into is the engagement spline on the armature and starter drive will have the wrong twist/pitch to engage when turned the opposite way. When ran reversed the starter drive will retract not extend out into the ring gear.
So I am afraid you stuck either just eating the cost or sending it back for a refund or replacement that turns the correct way.
Lanse the reason there could be different rotations is how the starter is mounted. The most common way is for the starter motor to be towards the front of the motor with the drive towards the flywheel. An examples would be your Ford pickup. Some starters are mounted with the body of the starter mounted behind the flywheel. Example would be many IH tractors. So with the majority of motors designed to run clockwise when viewed from the front, the different mounting directions require a starter with different rotations.
