The inlet cam lobes on cylinder 1 need to be facing backwards for it to be the compression stroke.. There is a marker on the bottom part of the cambelt cover that aligns with the auxillary belt drive pulley.
Its easy enough to fit both of then to find TDC. Then when the cam locking tools fit you are all aligned correctly.
