TDC mark

I have a Tank Trail 200 with the OHC 163FML just like this one:
http://www.chinariders.net/modules.p...adjustment+ohc

and I want to check the valve clearances, but there is no "T" mark on the flywheel. All I see is an arrow, then two unmarked lines, and then an "F" mark which feels like it should be TDC. It looks like the "T" mark in the picture but it's an "F". At this "F" mark i can move the valves up and down a slight bit. Anyone else have these marks? I don't want to set them at the wrong spot.

Also, my manual says to do .05mm for both intake and exhaust, but it's for the pushrod engine. I've heard .05mm intake and .08mm exhaust for the OHC. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks
