Correct, the two sprockets both had dots, they were not aligned. I would take a pic, but I've got the pan and cover back on; but the nuts are not torqued down yet. I'm trying to avoid taking it all off again.

When I initially saw that they were not lined up, it crossed my mind to turn the motor over to fix it. The problem was that I just dont have the tools to do so; there's nothing to torque on in order to move the crank.
