Timing Belt Question 900

I am confident that I got the engine at TDC, will close anyway. I got the timing marks lined up perfectly. I placed the bottom cover and crank pulley back on and it looks like I am about 15 deg retarded. My TDC indicator, a piece of stiff cu wire proves that that when the timing marks are lined up the engine is about 15 deg beyond TDC. Is this correct??? In any case I have the cogs in the belt counted and everything well marked. In reality, I think the the cam gear and the crank can be in any position as long as the the new belt is put back in the same position as the old.
