Sorry for the confusion, I'll try to clarify.
Once the cam was installed and properly degreed with degree wheel. We set the engine to piston 1 TDC, then added on the new timing cover, then the distributor with rotor pointing to cyl 1 tdc. After that was all on we put on the balancer to see if the indentation on the balancer was correctly aligned with the 0 on the timing tab (which it was) of the new correct side timing chain cover (one with factory tab on the passenger side).
Essentially this picture with to make sure my balancer was correctly marked for the timing chain cover.
Ah hah! I found a problem- right now according to my previous picture posted cyl 1 is not at TDC, it is what 90 degrees off or something like that, the mark with the red line should be at 0 for TDC.
