TDC

I'm trying to get a 749 back on the road. When I bought it, it had no timing belt on the horizontal cylinder, and I don't know how to get TDC. Can anybody tell me where the dots should all be pointing on the timing pulleys?

I bought a manual off ebay, and guess which pages were missing?

Usually some alignment marks on the head somewhere.
I have a 999 manual on CD.

There is only one obvious mark for the drive pulley, but I'm not sure where the camshaft pulleys should be facing.

Is the manual small enough to email?

They dont have any marks on the pullies/heads as Ducati use locking tools in the end of the cams to get right position
