Crank no start - engine newly installed after 10 years of sitting 200 1990

New info after pulling lower timing cover off:

Intermediate shaft somehow is way off - tensioner is freewheeling so new one is on order now (I'd steal one off my son's old sedan but it's probably just as bad).

Belt is off Crankshaft and Camshaft marks were still lined up correctly except for half tooth off.

The crankshaft donut (correct term??) was on the crankshaft sprocket correctly but the timing belt was still walking forward.

Can I assume that the tensioner looseness was the cause of the walking forward belt?

And is it possible that the intermediate shaft sprocket was not tightened up enough causing the belt to slip out of proper alignment??

Thanks for the consideration - seems I'm still a novice at some of this stuff!
