You would have to take the timing cover off and look. Id just ask the shop what they did. It should be put on straight up or both dots on the gears should be at 12 o'clock. I dont see how a decent shop could get it wrong but they may have tried to advance the cam a couple of degrees like the old school builders liked to do.
