I assume this is a single phase motor with a capacitor housed in a
power bulge. Can you confirm?

Yes, single phase. In fact it has two "power bulges" on the top at 11
and 1 o'clock.

If so there'll be 2 windings, 1 powered directly with mains the other
indirectly through a capacitor. If the 2 windings are identical then
the capacitor may be swapped from one winding to the other. If they
are not identical it can't be reversed without overheating and/or
loss of performance.

I presume reversing the supply to either one of the windings would also
do it...

I have it on good authority that if you took it south of the equator, it
would turn the other way
