Default Timing Marks

I just bought a timing light to try and advance my timing but I can't seem to find the marks on the pully to line up. It's a digital light, when I point it at the pully, it doesn't read anything. Where are these marks? Thanks.

You may need to get under the car and clean up the balancer so you can see them

Thanks alot for that. From what angle do I need to point the light at it? From the passenger side, driver side, underneath the car? Thanks again.
