Got it with trial and error! At rear of crank there is a 58 tooth gear with a 2 tooth gap ( commonly known as a 60 minus 2 gear ). This gear is tapped over the rear of the crank, in front of the main bearing oil seal casing. On the toothed gear, there is a hole... this hole must be alligned with the mark / hole in the 5 o'clock position on the seal casing ( 14 teeth past the pick-up ). The 2 tooth gap will be in the 9 o'clock position. Now your ignition timing is set! Check cam belt and cam timing marks and you are ready to start your engine.
