6-28.4. CRANKSHAFT TIMING GEAR - MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS.
a. The crankshaft timing gear is bolted to the flange at the rear end of the crankshaft and drives the camshaft gear
(LB and RD engines) or balance shaft gear LD, and RB engines) through an idler gear. One gear attaching bolt hole is
offset so that the gear can be attached in only one position.
b. Since the camshaft and balance shaft gears must be in time with the crankshaft, timing marks are located on two
teeth of the idler gear with corresponding match marks stamped on the crankshaft gear and camshaft and balance shaft
gears, see paragraph 3-28.
c.  Left hand helix gear with a letter "L" timing mark is provided for left-hand rotation engines, and a right-hand helix
gear with a letter "R" timing mark is provided for right-hand rotation engines.
