Timing belt change 900 1994

I have read over all the techniques for removing the front pulley and have some additional questions: Is jamming the teeth on the flywheel an ok procedure or is there a risk of damaging a tooth? I see conflicting information on the importance of observing the timing of the intermediary shaft. Is is geared to distributor rotor and if so why would it not be important?
The camshaft mark. There is a relatively small notch in the backcover at about the 12;00 position; I guess this must be it. There is no mark on the valve cover or block that I can see.

I have 114000 mile on the car, and the belt and tensioner all appeared to be in excellant shape. They have never been changed. I am changing the belt though, because the tensioner is appears to be at the end of its stroke.

Before taking off the pulley, it would appear that it can be lined up at TDC in the 12:00 position by the marks in the lower case. In this position is the crankshaft timing pulley lined up with its marks?
