Default TDC issues w/ hks cam gears

are my cam gears set to tdc?

The problem is that the woodruff keys need to face up but when they are facing up, the dots on the cam gears are misaligned. any suggestions/insight? or is this the way they're suppose to be?

Its a Toda Timing Belt if it makes a difference

The motor is not at TDC when the hole in the cam and cam cap line up. In your picture both cam gears should be rotated counter clockwise, to get to TDC. So everyone here who says to align the dots is right.
