I ought to know this...

I need to time my engine.  Of course, the hole in the crankshaft pulley
signifies TDC for #1 piston.
But how can one tell if the  distributor's rotor button should be pointing
toward #1 spark plug wire or 180 degrees on the distributor cap from #1 (I
know I need to take the BTDC advance into account).

Thanks,
