No Cam marks.. Options

[rave2n]

Guys, I hate to make another post, but I'm trying to get this timing done.

I'm pretty sure I have it right, but I'm also being a bit paranoid.

My cams do not have the mark on them to line them up..why I have no idea...

On the pulley themselves they have a dot on one of the spokes, and I've referenced other pictures i've taken before I removed the belt, and seen couple online to see where things have lined up, and it appears spot on...I just don't understand why mine do not have the cam marks to match to the head. Hard to eye ball the spoke dot, with the head grove....

I've ran my finger around the cam, and went face first with a LED light..there is no mark on the cams.

Any ideas?

The 5sfe has a small hole in the pulley that is supposed to line up with a notch on the bearing cap. It at the highest point of the bearing cap, and you need a flashlight and mirror to see it on the GTs.

I believe the 7a had an E or I that had to be lined up with a mark, but im not certain.

Dunno if yalls engine is similar, hope this helps.
