No, there's definitely supposed to be a notch on the ancillary belt pulley. It's described and illustrated in RAVE plus I have a photograph posted by a KV6 Freelander owner.

You're right Gordon that there's a notch on the crankshaft sprocket which aligns with the 'speech bubble' hidden behind the pulley. But once the pulley has been removed to expose this, it is no longer possible to turn the engine if the setting is wrong.
