I decided to buy a new crankshaft gear because the machine shop gouged mine with a tool while disassembling the crankshaft. The new gear I bought at a local VW parts store has the two dots located one tooth over from the gear that came out of my engine. Which one is correct? The part number on the new gear is right, so now I'm not sure which gear to use.

I can simply drill some new holes in the new gear to match the old one, but can anyone confirm which one has the righ marks?

New gear and box at the top, old gear at the bottom:

Thanks for any help!

That was an idiot with a chisel, or an air hammer with a chisel bit.
