Help refitting cam-belt on a Carina E

What way should the timing belt guide fit on the crank shaft pully on a Toyota Carina E 1995?
The saucer facing in the way or out the way?

Answered by Alan Ross

If you are referring to the crankshaft sprocket guide washer then it should be refitted with the saucer facing outwards.
