FWIW much easier to time it by moving the rear cam sprocket in relation to the cam rather than repositioning the IP, but if you got it timed, then all's well that ends well, just FYI for next time around.

You can remove all the fuel lines as a set too -- another way to save some future hassle, though not a helpful tip at the present moment while you're trying to sort out the jumble of pipes. Like 745 said, there is only one right way to do it, you can figure it out by trial and error if you have to. The #1 connection is the one you identified, uppermost outer union, 1:00 if your perspective is from the front of the car looking at the pump head. Make sure you do get all three of those vibration clamps back on there, if it seems like they won't fit, mess with it until they do -- the hard lines don't like living without them and they will make that fact known to you in short order.

And, of course, make sure everything is surgically clean before you put those fuel lines on there, it doesn't take much to stick an injector. Especially if they have been sitting off the car somewhere for a while, brake cleaner or compressed air is your friend here...
