What are the timing marks for a 1996 Audi A6 Quattro 2.8L?

You have to buy a cam tool and a crankshaft tool to hold them in TDC. There is a timing mark on the harmonic balancer to get you started. But if you want to try and do it with out the tools get the white out read and mark the TDC of the crankshaft and remove the belt. Next turn the camshafts so that the large hole of the two on the cam is facing the center and mark them. Now pop the sprockets loose (24mm) to ease installation and have at it. The cam sprockets will spin freely and make sure to tighten the tensioner so that you can turn the belt 90 degrees and sung it to 33 foot pounds. and then tighten up the camshaft sprockets.
