That makes more sense, since the only paint mark I've seen was on the 
gland nut/flywheel junction. There's really nowhere on the crank that 
you could put a paint mark that would be visible with the engine 
assembled, except down inside the gland nut hole. Berg marks them 
there, but I've never seen any other mark there.
