Default KC laser timing info help required

Just replaced a head gasket on my mrs 86 KC laser (1.6 auto)

Didnt turn the motor to TDC before i started (yes i know im an idiot) :togo:

Now before i slapped the head on a mate and i set the head up to what we thought was TDC. Cyl 1 valves were closed, and there were two lines on the cam gear one facing 12 oclock the other at 3 oclock.

Now we rotated the crank to the compression stroke, but didnt know where on the crank marking (on the block) to set the crank exactly...

Can anyone help with where the crank is TDC, or post a manual scan to show how to make sure its exact?

I know its close, but as they say 1 tooth off is all it takes....

TIA
