I stand corrected. The #1 at TDC has no bearing as to exhaust or intake, that is up to the cams. While it takes 2 revolutions to get the cylinder in the compression stage, all 5 pistons move in the same manner.

So... align the crank mark on the pulley and glue down the cam cover.

When the cams go on, that will determine intake/exhaust cycle for the piston.

Make sure to rotate the crank 720 degrees after the belt is on and before the plugs go in. That will let you also check that the belt is on straight while checking the timing marks.

Have fun!
