Timing Marks Off Before You Start??

After finally receiving all the parts for a timing belt change, I pull the covers, rotate the crankshaft around CW to line them up on top . . . and their a bit off.

So I looked down below at the crank pulley and it looks like the line on the engine? is not between the two teeth with the slit on them, but in the next valley over?! And it's been like this for 6 years, when the indy shop replaced the belt.

So what gives? I've read horror stories about being "one-tooth" off.

I can post photos if there's a way.

Anyone seen this before they start?
