81 351w timing problem

Hi,
I have an 81 F150, 351w, auto trans, 4x4.

The original owner removed (completly) the module and all sensors. He also replaced the distributor with a point type.

The module and crank sensor controled the timing. There are no timing marks on the harmonic balancer and no reference marks on the block to set the timing.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do, or how to, set the timing?

Thanks,
Bill
