I usually tell by "feel" as it is going on. You should feel it stop when it butts against the crank gear.

Usually the surface of the hub that's supposed to be inside the cover is shiny, but that my not be of much use if the hab sat autside for long. It will show clearly when the damper is fixed and belt doesn't lineup.
