The idle noise (hot or cold) seems be slightly louder and more "diesely" but that dissappears as soon as the engine revs above idle.
I may try to move the pump back slight more towards the mark but assuming I didn't move it too much, I'd be very happy with how it's running now.

What I can see on the picture I would guess your pump was advanced about 5 degrees earlier.
According to the facts until now I would not have expected that behavior, but your description seems like the engine runs normal now.
Keep in mind that the fuel you use is not the same fuel the engine was designed for timing wise. As a Diesel engine is always an adaption to ignition delay you can leave the timing the way it is now if it runs fine.
