Default Which dot to set timing straight up on rollmaster crank gear?(pic)

The cam gear only has one dot, the crank gear has two. One dot is right above the keyway which is the one I think I should use and the other is right by the teeth and is about 2*s advance. Here is a pic I think I need to install it with the dot that is right above the keyway. If I do that which dot do I line up with the dot on the cam gear?

I know its dot to dot, but there are TWO dots on the crank gear for the rollmaster double roller. I think Im suppose to put the key through the keyway that is directly under the dot on teh shaft of the gear then line the dot that is by the teeth up with the dot on the cam gear to get the cam "straight-up"

The dot on the snout is the 0 advance/retard setting for keyway on crank, just line up dot-to-dot on camshaft sprocket and outer dot near tooth on crankshaft sprocket.

My JE pistons have big valve reliefs so if it is installed right p to v will be fine. Thanks for the help.
