Can you upload a picture for me to see? If not, do this. Remove the #1 spark plug and determine when that piston is at top dead center (TDC). When it is, the mark you will want to use will be pointing at TDC on the crank.

Incorrect answer. TDC does not align the crank sprocket timing mark with arrow on the oil pump. Alignment actually occurs at 60 degrees ATDC.
