If it is a 1.9,, then you point the arrow on the cam pulley up, at the dot on the head, and the crank pulley notch up, at the matching notch above it, and put on the belt. The tensioner is a bit of a hassle.

Where are timing marks for 2.0engineon a ford escort?

I am not familiar with this engine in particular but most engines have the timing marks stamped into the block with a corresponding dot or arrow on the crankshaft damper which tells you where top dead center (TDC) is. After aligning these timing marks you would look at the camshaft sprocket(s). If it is a single overhead cam (SOHC) there will be markings similar to those for the crankshaft, one on the cylinder head and another on the camshaft sprocket. Or, if it is a dual overhead cam (DOHC) there is typically one arrow on each of the camshaft sprockets that you align to be pointing at one another.

What causes the engine on a 1988 Ford Escort 1.6 diesel to lock up when turned by hand after you have done everything the manual says when putting on a timing belt?

It is just a guess, but I wonder if you have either the crankshaft or camshaft 180 degrees off. A piston is hitting a valve. There shouldn't be anything in the process of a timing belt to cause this.
