Take a read of this:
206info.co.uk/Forums/v...29081.html
there's two timing pin holes one on the camshaft pulley and one in the flywheel, they need to be locked off together when replacing belt to ensure correct timing.

It is a 1.4 8v.there is a lock position hole on camshaft pulley but for crankshaft there is nothing to insert a locking pin.

So long as the crankshaft and camshaft are locked off together when replacing the belt then i would ignore those marks. Also once the belts on double check correct timing by turning the engine over by hand 6 times and insert timing pins again to make sure the timing holes still line up.

yea the belt can be a tooth out and still run with out causeing any damage but it wouldn't run very well. Good luck you might have a much better car when you finished.
