Alright so your initial timing doesnt really mean shit because the markers will sit at a different position with each stroke. If you never took the chain off then tdc is tdc no matter where the marks are and you're fine. If you did take the chain off all you need to do is set it to tdc and line up the colored links with the dots. Its really simple once you figure it out. If you still dont understand watch the "ka24de timing explained" videos on youtube.

Im really unsure wether or not you took the chain off tbh. I cant load the last pic you posted.

yes itll be off every rotation I came to the conclusion it takes an ascenine number of rotations to line them all back up again. but its perfectly normal
