The answer is NOT in the FSM!!!
I will provide pictures and the answer when I get to my PC.

TDC is easy.
The diagrams for the timing chains ARE in the FSM.
Nowhere can you find how many crank rotations it can possibly take to match TDC and all the timing chain marks.
Ill give it a stab without a lot of thought, but I warn I do not practice math much at all... but maybe...

Where x = timing chain links, and y = crank sprocket teeth

lcm(x,y) / y = revolutions between timing chain eclipse

anyone good at math? grade me

edit: never mind i just graded myself, i get an A+ this solution works.
