w124 ball joint install question

Where exactly should I look to see the reference mark on the nuckle to be matched up with the mark on the rim of the new ball joint? Do not see anything obvious to go by.

Time is up! I had to do something and so I lined up the notch on the joint's rim with the imaginary center line of the eye, with the notch in the pole facing the control arm and pressed the thing in. Seems to have worked just fine. Thanks to Billybob's calming guidance and the write up in the DIY section now I have new ball joints! It is not easy, especially the removal part, but doable. Long live the forum!
