The 410 and 428 are all externally balanced from the flywheel(whether manual or automatic). If you look at an automatic flywheel, you'll see a chunk of metal welded on the plate and you also probably see drilled dimples for the fine balance. Manual flywheels are likewise different.

The "hatchet" used on the SCJ was indeed different since the SCJ used a heavier rod and had also center crank counterweights. If your engine doesn't have these distict characteristics then you shouldn't use the hatchet. Likewise, if your engine is an SCJ, you need to use the hatchet.

All FE engines used a detroit balance where the crank was balanced with the damper and flywheel attached and, depending on the engine, balance was achieved on either the crank or on the flywheel.
