no the lines on the cam gear should match up to the head. ( _ _____ _ ) long part is the top of the head small dash are the way cam gear should look when on the head lined up straight

Yea thats not even close to being TDC. Do what Robert said and also you see the line on the bottom of the gear, and that little plastic piece on the back cover? Well those are suppose to meet as well.
