I can't tell what angle your taking the pictures from. Plus there is no reference with the upper timing cover.

you are looking at both cams straight on. So the top is the top and the bottom is the bottom of the cam sprockets. It's not aligned to the upper timing cover. Just wanting to find out if these are the markings.

Where is the crank marking located? Is it a line, a dot, a notch?

a notch..those are the right marks on the first pic but cant tell on the second..when aligning the crank you may need to turn it a few time until both cam marks line up..

some decent pics of it on this thread..
