Crank gear dot should point stright up / 12o clock with #1 pistion at TDC.
all the way up at the top of #1 cylinder.
The cam gear dot should point stright down At 6o clock. That will make both dots stright over top of each other. Then the crank and cam will be in time.

On the front of the timing chain cover, drivers side towards the top of the harmonic balancer.


Where are the timing light marks on the Chevy 305 v8 in a 1996 pickup?

There is a mark on the timing chain cover behind the harmonic balancer(behind the crank pulley). The harmonic balancer also has a slot cut in it so that you can line the crank up with the mark on the timing cover. The mark on the timing cover should sit at the 2 o'clock position or the 12 o'clock position. My 96 Chevy 305 is at the 2 o'clock position.
