Re: timed gears
That is not the timing mark on the carrier. Keep in mind that the ring gear can be rotated on the carrier if removed 
Check on the inside diameter of the ring gear teeth. When the marks are aligned, it looks like they were all made by one swipe with the marking paint.

Re: timed gears
yeah I ve searched inside ring gear with a magnifying glass . no paint marks. I should have marked them both before disassembly. I assumed the would be evident.
