Greg, I have had a t-belt jump a few teeth but that's after I knocked some brittle (previously overheated) t-belt cover plastic accidentally into the the cam gears when cleaning engine. It was an oddball situation and I doubt yours has jumped.

It's easy enough to check though. Take over top cover and ensure both marks align.

As long as the tensioner brg is moving freely and does not have excessive play, I also don't think it would be a problem. I just did my t-belt a few wks ago and have left the top cover off to see if the belt is "walking" to the outside of the cam pulley over time.
