Hello ANDRIN,

Okay, it looks like there are two reference marks for the timing, one is on the timing chain while the other marks are on the gears. Here are the diagrams needed to reinstall the time chain and the cylinder head torque specs and sequence. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
