Be very careful using either on this engine. It is a converted gas engine. The crank has only 3 main bearings and is prone to break if abused. I still remember the FoMoCo service bulletin advising not to reuse a turned crankshaft when rebuilding and to use a new one in the place of it. I always use a torch to start diesels after a rebuild if they are slow to hit on their own. Aim a small flame toward the inlet on the intake manifold while cranking so heat can be drawn in. Can't help you with the timing. Seem like there were marks on the flywheel and behind a small inspection plate on the pump.
