1 may not necessarily be at the front.

Do this to check cambelt is set correctly

1)Turn engine using big spanner on crank pulley (Lowest Pulley) until zero marker on pulley is lined with timing pointer

2)look at camshaft pulley, is the pointer at the bottom?

3) Take of dissy cap. Is the rot pointing towards a scribed line on the uper rim of the distributor. (This scribed line marks the location of where Number one should be).

Let us know how you go - check points gap is opening too. It's easy to do. Take cap and rotor off, put car in gear, rock car backwards and forwards so the cam lobes lift the points. Check for a gap. If gap is crap then it'll run like shit
