1992 245 Timing Belt One Tooth Lag on Cam Gear 200

Hi Everyone!

I'm replacing the timing belt after 30k miles since I'm already replacing the cam seal. I noticed that my cam gear is lagging one tooth! I replaced the belt before and guess I got it one tooth off. The car seemed to run fine the whole time. Any ideas why, or what this really effects? I assume I'll have more power and economy with the cam in the correct position and a new belt and tensioner.

Thanks for everything!

I'm using the mark on the crank gear for reference, not the harmonic balancer.
