I don't fully understand your post.....10 valve right, there in a indentation on the back of the camshaft pulley this has to line up with the top of the cam cover including the reinforcing strips (viewed from the spark plug side) at TDC (No 1).

TDC is shown in a little aperture on the bell housing, refer to a picture in a manual and it is set to number 1 cylinder at TDC.

You should have a timing mark on the flywheel pulley as well.

PS you can't see the indentation without removing the steel back cover from the timing belt cover.
