Riddle me this, Batman!

I have never seen anyone use a random spot on the bottom if the engine like that to mark "TDC". Why aren't you using the timing mark on the timing cover? Looks to me like your damper spun, or your distributor position, or cam, is off degrees wise.
It's not random. That's just a picture of the damper where it happened to be at that time. Go take a picture of the damper on your engine right now. Wherever it happens to be.

I just took a snapshot of the damper. You can see the TDC mark, lined up at zero.

When that mark spins on around to the TDC mark on the timing cover, low and behold, the no one piston is at TDC.


Seriously. I hope this is clear.

Edited because I was a few beers in when I wrote this and was an ***. Apologies.
