the first picture is right but cant see the second clearly , it will be identical to the first ie hand marked not cast in the pulley , when you line up your first mark with the mark in the cam cover at the top you will find the second picture mark lines up also of course .dont forget the crank mark on the cam belt drive gear too ! Also dont forget to change the idler and tensioner pulleys on cambely AND aux.belt as well as the aux belt iteslf , AND dont forget to change the thermostat which is behind the cam belt if this is a T6 !!( volvo stipulate this ) Use all genuine volvo parts , you dont want to do this job again or have to fit a new engine due to catastrophic failure .
