Is there a template, or measurement I could use to put timing marks on my fan itself?

I know about the one from pelican for the housing, but I would like one degree marks on the fan itself.

I am not certain I can accurately measure the diameter of the fan...hoping someone knows that number...I can do the math from there.

This one is made to mark the fan itself.

Why would the diameter be hard to measure?

Either you need a very large set of calipers or something else as neat.
There is a large protrusion on the back that gets in the way for a simple ruler or tape measure.

The fan diameter I measured is 227mm. Circumference would be 713.234 mm. One degree would equal 1.9812 mm

Measure the circumference. A flexible tape or even a paper tape from IKEA works nice.

And you can also check in the shop manual. They have the exact measurement for the timing marks there. Page 3-3 2/3
