Subject:On 2.1L is TDC the U groove on pulley?

I have run into some confusion in the Bentley manual as to which mark
on the crankshaft pulley is TDC--the V notch closest to the case or
the U notch on rim farthest from the case.  Seems pretty clear in the
ignition section of Bentley that the V notch is where you set the
timing at 2500rpm with temp II disconnect but in the engine section
under Ignition distributor installing, page 13.39 the white arrow in
the picture is pointing to the V groove as TDC.  Are the instructions
on page 13.39 incorrect?

So On the 2.1L is TDC the U groove on pulley?
