The fist time I faced a finding TDC issue, I grabbed a thick soft wire and pulled the L2 spark plug. You slowly rotate the engine by hand while 'feeling' with the wire until an apex seal touches it. You've just found BDC on the rear rotor and TDC on the front rotor. Back off a few degrees and install the pulley with the marks near the pin; it will be quite close.

Almost no 'work' involved using my method. Enjoy.
