as said above,the best thing you can do is buy a good shop manual.if you don't know how to do what you're asking about,you may be getting in over your head if you don't have a manual.
to set the #1 piston to TDC,there is a mark on the timing belt cog,and a corresponding mark on the oil pump to match it to.with the crank pulley on,there is a white mark on the crank pulley and a corresponding pointer on the timing belt cover.
