Help with lining everything up for first time crank

[FerociousP]

I've got a 12A and the water pump/fan, alt and crank pulleys were off. Now I'm in the process of turning the motor over for the first time.

How should the crank pulley be installed on so I know the correct point at which the motor is at TDC? There's a little notch on the inner ring of the x-centric shift "inner pulley(?)"; what does that indicate? Here's a picture of what I'm talking about:


Does that "notch out" determine how the pulley should be bolted up to the shaft?

This is my first rotary motor experience. I've been referring to the FSM but none of the instructions or pictures are helping. The motor is already in the furnace and the radiator is installed and full of coolant so it'll be very difficult for me to get to the shaft bolt to remove it. The motor is in a corolla by-the-way and there's not much space between the rad and the crank pulley.

I'd appreciate any useful advice/guidance. Thanks in advance.
