SR20 crank pulley is keyed. If they lost the key, I dont see how the hell it wouldnt spin off the crank. I'd say, pop the valve cover off, set the engine in TDC and double check your mechanical timing. Just to make sure its not off.

As far as the HG, you sure its leaking between the head and not from a hose somewhere? I've never a SR actually leak coolant between the head and block unless there's a crack on the block.

First, if a straight edge shows no gaps, I can get away without having the surfaces resurfaced (YES)
Second, my plan (broke as I am) is a cosworth MLM 1.1 mm gasket with ARP head studs; I have found them on EBAY new at $130 for the studs and about $175 shipped for the gasket. Is there either a cheaper place to get them or a better value? I'm running the stock T25 @ 11 or 12 PSI on an otherwise stock engine, I'm sure that matters. (FRESH STOCK NISSAN HEADGASKET AND ARP STUDS DOES WONDERS ON BUDGET)
Third, Does copper spray == Indian head Liquid copper gasket shelac? I only ask because I have a bottle of Indian Head. (IS THIS THE COOPER SPRAY? IT WOULDNT HURT TO USE IT)
Forth, I can't tell from the tear downs I've seen, Can I get by with just pulling the manifolds, or will I have to completely tear them down (I.E. pull the whole turbo and the fuel rail)? (YOU CAN PULL THE WHOLE HEAD WITH THE MANIFOLDS ON IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING, ITS JUST GONNA BE HEAVY).
Fifth, I've read in some of the other HG threads that you use the FSM for the tightening pattern, but not the torque when using an aftermarket HG, true? (FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR ARP HEAD STUDS IF THATS WHAT YOU'RE USING)
Finally, is there a breakin period for head gaskets? (NO)
