Try approaching the problem from static. With the engine not running, turn the front belt till the distributor rotor is pointing at the water pump. Then examine the rear edge of the pulley. You should find the stamped in degree marks that way. Get a strong light on it. Once you find the marks you might clean them and apply a little white paint into them and scrape off the excess after it dries. Assuming the car was running you should find the marks are near the pointer when the rotor points at the #1 plug wire on the cap. By the way, you sure you had the gun clipped to the #1 wire?
