How do you find TDC on a 351 Cleveland After the distributor has been removed and was not marked properly?

Take off the passenger side valve cover. Tap the engine over until the rotor is pointing to the number one distributor wire (on the back side of the distributor slightly to the drivers side). If both valve rockers are loose on the number one cylinder (front passenger side) it is TDC on the compression stroke (also the timing mark on the fly wheel pully should be on top and visible). If both valve lifters are not loose (ie. one is down) the piston is on the exhaust stroke and not TDC compression stroke (the timing mark on the flywheel pully will be on the bottom of the pully, 180 degrees off). You must have the rotor pointing to number one and be at the top of the compression stroke to put the distributor in place.

Chevy 350 where is 1 on the distributer if it is not marked?
It's not marked because #1 can be just about anywhere. When the engine comes from the factory, it's always the same, but if the distributor has been removed, #1 will be whereever the rotor is pointing when #1 piston is at TDC at the top of the compression cycle.
