Crank Angle Timing

Hey guys,

I'm in the process of reinstalling my engine and I just have a quick question about the crank angle plate. It seems like common sense but I just want to make sure that I'm not doing anything wrong. I noticed there were a few threads on 1st gens and 2nd gens but couldn't find anything on 3rd gens

1st pic it's miss aligned
2nd pic it is rotated which made it align
It can only line up in one position right? Is there anything I need to know? I read somewhere about finding Top dead center and it got me worried about this. Stupid question but better safe than sorry.

Stock fd trigger wheel only lines up 1 way. Second pic is correct. That wheel looks a little bent up so I would lay it o a flat surface and make sure it isn't bent. Always verify timing with a timing gun.

I will check to see if it is bent, thank you for the quick response.
