Answer

the timing belt has two cams that have marks and both must be at 12:00,
the crankshaft was a dimple too and it must also align to a notch on crankshaft housing. The trick is not lining the marks up but keeping the 2 cams on there marks exactly while fighting the valve springs that want to swing one countercllock wise and the other clockwise. Either figure out a jig or get bubba to help you hold them still while you put on belt.
