Timing 75 300 D

1975 300D 1975 300D Cam shaft removed, injection pump removed. When cam shaft is re installed, Injection pump re-installed, Cam shaft mark lined up with TDC on Crank Shaft Pulley. Injection pump marks Lined for timing. Question: Is there any other timing marks that needs to be in line???? I read somewhere the the Injection Pump (DRive Gear) should be lined up with some yellow Dot on gear, which I can not find any dot on drive gear for injection pump. Sorry for the confusion in last question.
