You can be a little more exact by using the small pointer on the front timing cover (near the TDC sensor) and the mark on the harmonic balancer marked "O|T" The pointer should point at the line between the O and T, that's when you are exactly at TDC on #1 cylinder.
Like I said though, you want to run the engine through twice by hand after installing the chain tensioner and recheck the camshaft mark and crankshaft index to make sure you are still in time.
