From what I'm reading in one of my old I.H. manuals, the pointer you mention is your index pointer. The degree's of advance and T.D.C are on the balancer it's self. On a engine of that vintage you may have to look closely to see.

Rotate the engine in operating direction to T.D.C. for no.1 cylinder(on compression stroke).
Adjust the following valves: no. 1 int and exh, no.3 exh, no.5 int, no.7 exh, no.2 int, no.4 int, no.8 exh (.012) for intake valves clearance and (.016) for exhaust valves clearance.

Rotate the engine 360 degrees to T.D.C. for no.6 cylinder ( on compression stroke). adjust the following valves: no.3 int, no.5 exh, no.7 int, no.2 exh, no.4 exh, no.6 int and exh, no.8 int.
