crank timing marks

[David]

Hi Folks.
Just fired up the Lady after installing new belts. She appears to run fine. However, I have this nagging tquestion that won't leave. Here it is. On the crank there is a T and just below it there is another mark that runs horizontaly like the top of the T.
Which one of these is the correct timing mark,the actual top of the T or the mark below it running the same way
Just wanting to be sure in Saskatchewan Canada.
Regards to you al!!

I set it to TDC, so according to anything I've read or heard it is correct. What is the #1 fire mark used for?
Thanks Dan .
Much appreciated!

Fire mark is when checking timing with a timing light.

That must be what the groove marks on the pulleys are for.. lining up when firing.. it is about in the right place when turning the crank..
