Default swapped cam gears, marks out?

hey guys, I recently replaced my cam gears and put the belt back on the same after it was taken off, making marks with a paint pen turned the motor to ensure it was at TDC and that the tension was good. took the cover off today and noticed this (see pictures) on the gears, should the lines line up or the teeth themselves? should I be concerned all? the car seems to run perfectly fine, no abnormal quirks or anything.

i took the Cylinder #1 plug out and put a screwdriver to ensure TDC, I rotated it so the bottom timing cover lined up with the notch on the crank pully and the two gear teeth pointed at each other but the lines were out but the screwdriver was at TDC, as I rotated it so the lines would line up it was still at TDC since the movement to the crank was minimal.

should be perfectly fine I'm assuming? good tension on the belt as well from all sides.

your cam gears look lined up perfect where do you see anything off?

The paint marks he made on the gears Im guessing.

Not sure what you were marking with the paint pen but looks pretty close to me.

Cam gears set to 0 0?

Check timing with a timing gun to be safe.
