Look on the Cams you will see a line on each cam. Then on the top timing cover you will see cuts that the lines will match up with. There is a mark on the Crank. Usually very hard to see unless you look just right.

After you get the belt back on MAKE SURE YOU CRANK IT OVER BY HAND WITH A RATCHET TWICE BEFORE STARTING IT.
