No timing Mark

I just checked my timing on my 1996 4 cyl SOHC Ranger and found no marks to line my crank , Wher does the line line up to. I found TDC on #1 cyl compression stroke and the valve and oil dosent line up.

Looks like the mark is on the gear itself and not on the pulley. You may have to remove the pulley to find this mark. Looks like the mark is just a tad clockwise from the keyway.

I ment to say there is no mark to line up the crank pulley on the inner belt cover, there is a mark on the crank pulley . And is there a way we can take the spring tension off of the timing belt without the use of the camshaft belt tension adjusting tool? I think I do have to take the pulley off and put the key at 12 o clock. TNX guyin stl.
