Changing timing belt...please tell me I didn't break this...
About to assemble everything, but right before I put the lower tb cover on, I noticed that while pulley has grooves, the crank spindle for the crank...doesn't. Just that little woodruff key, and that sticks out about a centimeter. The hell? Why does the pulley have grooves in the inside if what it rides on doesn't? Is something funky going down?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Looks correct to me.

Yeah that's how mine was, you would think it would line up better like a set of gears but it doesn't. Just don't drop the woodruff key into the holes in the control arm.
