I'm not sure what you're asking for....On the 560's, there's the crank pully. Looking straight down from the distributor, towards the crank pully, you'll see the timing pointer...it looks like a nail sticking out from the engine block. With a timing gun hooked up to the number one cylinder, you'll be able to see the markings. I think the timing is set at about 5 ATDC...but contact your local dealer or mechanic, they'll tell you. Now, if you're talking about the cam timing...that's a whole other story. With your limited knowledge of engines, I would not get into working on this. There are two cam shafts, one on each side, a cam chain, about 5 separate can chain tensioners, and a bunch of other stuff involved with this. If you set the cam one sproket off, you'll immediately send a valve into a piston...GAME OVER. I hope this is what you're looking for.... DM
