The yellow and white marks are long gone. As I look at the damper on the floor with the crank notch at 12 o'clock, there is one indentation right above that, another to the left about 45 degrees, and another to the left about 45 degrees. This marks are read going counter clockwise. Can someone tell me which marks these are (yellow, white)?

Here is the copy from one of my previous responses:
There are three index marks on some of the crank dampers. With the damper rotating in the clockwise direction, the first mark should be yellow and indicates 60 degrees BTDC on the #1 cylinder. The second mark should be white and indicates TDC on #1. The third mark should be uncolored and is not used in our timing checks.
Here is another:
In clockwise rotation, the first mark should be yellow and when aligned to the "0" mark on the tab indicates the #1 cylinder is at top dead center (TDC). This mark is used for setting the tension on the 3.0L's timing belt. The second mark that passes the "0" index in the clockwise rotation direction is the white mark and indicates that the #1 cylinder is at TDC when at the "0" mark. This index is used to position the crank and cams when removing the old timing belt and installing the new one. The third mark that passes the "0" index is not colored and not used for the timing belt procedure on the SHO engine.

Oh, I think you should have it by now. Happy timing.
