Spud has given you excellent guidance, as usual.
I'll add that the hash marks on the cam gear line up with the valve cover to head line, as you suspected. With the tensioner in place and properly adjusted, the hash markes should be in line with the valve cover gasket, and the T line should be visible through the inspection hole.
It is possible that the cam chain jumped a tooth when the tensioner went south, so it should be carefully checked.
