tear apart a spark plug to make a piston stop and then you can draw your own timing marks on! 
you drill/bash/cut/dynamite out the middle of a spark plug and fit a bolt into it, fit the plug, and turn the crank one way until pistopn stops - mark
the timing wheel, turn in the other way until it stops, mark the wheel again and mid way between the two is TDC, simples!

Oops I'm a divot, sorry i didn't see the words CAM PULLEY.
Sorry!

Remember full lift on a lobe can and TDC on a piston will "dwell" for a few degrees. If you want to set it up properly and have
adjustables then you need a DTI and degree wheel to find the center of the dwell.
