but yeah look, no room
Honestly, man, you didn't listen to us. We said to "zero" the adjustable cam sprockets, and do it the right way.....

I would need a picture from eye level with the top of the ehad to count the teeth.

Are you sure the first cylinder is at it's highest point (TDC). If so, it's porbably okay.

It would be good to keep cranking it by hand until the mating marks line up, just as a double check.

Timing light doesn't have anything to do with mechanical timing, only ignition timing and CAS-related stuff....
