Synthetic oil is not bad for an older car, but if you switch and the engine leaks more than it does now you may be able to switch back to dino. There are good quality dino oils available and you may also want to consider using them because they are cheaper.
The timing mark can be seen on the flywheel. There's a cut-out just below the AIC valve (located just in front of the fuel rail) where you shine your light and there's also a groove/line etched in the plastic that shows you exactly where to read the number.
