timing marks on balancer?

i've been looking around so if this has come up before, kindly link please.

i have five notches on my balancer but they're not marked with any degrees or other indication. i'm also using a fixed timing indicator like what most of the SBC's use, where it has notches and is marked to indicate 0, 2, 4, 6* etc. problem is, i don't know which of the notches on the balancer matches the TDC on the crank, and the spacing is such that i believe they're too close for me to determine without pulling the head, afixing a degree wheel and going through the process. it would be far easier if one of you knew which notch indicated zero so i don't have to go through all of that.

TIA

The notch on the ballance that lines up with the zero mark on the fixed timing indicataor when the number one cylinder is at TDC as verified by pulling the plug and double checking the position of the distributor rotor (should be pointing at #1).
