Correct me if I'm wrong here guys but if the engine is at TDC, the rotor pointing at #1 cylinder, shouldn't the slot in the distributer drive gear be parallel with the intake? It looks off in the pic.

If it makes you feel better about the drive gear, here’s a pic of someone else’s that had the same question.
