"I have NEVER used the marks on the engine to install a t belt. Probably done 300 or more with the marks on the belt lined up with the marks on the pulleys. Never any issues. "
Yes, either way works. Mechanical things come easy to some -- the rest of us need to get help on a forum. The way you (veteran of 300 timing belts) can help is by describing your method, without advocating it as the best for everyone. Begin by explaining why the belt comes marked.

As told by G.Downs III:
After years of hiding the fact that the love is gone, the last child moved out of the house and
Mom and Dad announced they are getting a divorce.
The kids are distraught and hired a marriage counselor as a last resort at keeping the parents together.
The counselor works for hours, tries all of his methods, but the couple still won't even talk to each other.
Finally, the counselor goes over to a closet, brings out a beautiful upright Bass, and begins to play.
After a few moments, the couple starts talking.
They discover that they're not actually that far apart and decide to give their marriage another try.
The kids are amazed and ask the counselor how he managed to do it.
He replies, "I've never seen anyone who wouldn't talk during a bass solo."
And for that, the counselor gets $200/hr, and doesn't have to join the musicians' union....
