One thing is I pulled the injection pump before I found out that the cam tooth was off.
This may be best as now I can learn how to time it from scratch.

I looked over the pump and cannot figure out where the lock pin would go, is it under a screw?

I think I saw in the FSM to clock it to 10 o'clock??

Is it typical to do trial and error when installing the pump?
Looks really easy to be a tooth off.

I know you already found what you needed to know so I will post this incase someone else reads the Thread.
On the Older Fuel Injection Pumps you can't use the currently made Fuel Injection Pump Timing Locking Pin that has a 17mm Head on it.

If you don't have the 17mm Plug (the blue Arrow points to) on the Governor Housing of the Fuel Injection Pump you cannot use the current Timing Locking Pin. The Timing Locking Pin replaces that Plug.

The Pic on the right shows the Timing Locking Pin installed.

No pic on the but also in the Manual there was a bunch of Fuel Injection Pumps that the timing marks are marked wrong on. You need to read the Manual see if your Fuel Injection Pump matches the number range and Year that has that issue.
