They should all match up. FYI there are more timing marks than you described. At No. 1 piston TDC, 1. each cam sprocket has a mark and it should be at 12 o'clock, 2. each cam shaft has a mark at the first cam hold down and it should line up with the index on the hold down, 3. the Woodruff key on the crank shaft is at 12 o'clock, 4. there is a mark on the flywheel, it should be at 12 o'clock and line up with an index on the rear engine plate. Of course if you do not remove the timing cover, you cannot see 3. and if you don't remove the transmission you cannot see 4.
