the botton pulley. (crankshaft tdc) its a bugger to find remove alternator, then there is a 10mm bolt in the block remove that. you can feel it with alternator on but if your not done it before its hard to find. thats where that pin will go and then you turn the engine by hand ( i take it you still have the belt that gos from the pump to the bottom pulley on )
if so put you socket on the pump and turn engine when tdc the crank will hit the locateing pin and stop. thats tdc

pump pulley you have holes in it all the way round the edge .
work your way into the centre of pulley there is a odd hole on its own (1/2 inch in ) with that at 12 o'clock there is a hole in the pump body also at 120'clock that aligns that.

but if you have not remove that pulley when you get tdc the pump will also be in line.

camshaft that lines up at 11o clock with a hole in the pulley and the head. if not sue go to other end of cam there is a slot in itmake sure thats level with the head. horizontal
