Forget the marks on the belt, they are only for initial installation of the belt, once the engine spins those marks are no longer relevent.

Turn the engine to line up the cam pulley so that the notch on the rear of the pulley lines up with a mark on the rear part of the belt cover. This is very easy to see by peeking in with the front cover loosened and pulled forward. At this point the timing mark on the outer part of crank pulley should read 0 degrees (TDC). It may be prudent to double check for TDC by removing #1 plug and insert something down to the top of the piston, move the engine back and forth slightly and observe that the piston is truly at the top of its travel. This will confirm to you that the outer crank pulley has not slipped on its rubber bonding.

Timing of the intermediate shaft is not a concern as it only drives the oil pump on this model engine.

Good Luck and I am anxious to hear what the final resolution will be.
