Default CRANK TDC Markings - Can I repaint them? Cant see them

Using a old old old stock oem d16a6 crank pulley

The lines are pretty much non existant, i kdont know what they look like stock but I can barely see mine when Im 2-3 inches from it, they just look like little chips or something

Should I take a paint marker and repaint them? Will it mess with anything? hurt anything?

I just did a rebuild and wanna start it up and have never touched honda timing before, what should I do?

Thank

If you can see exactly where they are then touching it up with a paint marker should be fine.

Crank the engine around until you can see the TDC marks ligned up on the cam pulley even with the head. Then look for the TDC marks. If it's not too far off, it should be close.
