Hi Andy,   Is this what you're looking for?    If you are looking for something else, let me know and I'll try to take the pic you need.

Andy,
I use white-out (thin tapered tip brush) to mark the damper and also the base timing spot I choose on the timing tab.   Makes them real easy to see with the timing light...Brian

Closest thing you may find nowadays might be with Snap-on, Mac Tools, or one of those guys.
