I have read the instructions on replacing a TB, but I am replacing the camshaft and I need to know how to make sure I have the camshaft in time to the rest of the points

The lobes for no 1 cylinder face up so that the valves are closed then it should be possible to get it in the right place using the timing belt guide, looking at the timing belt guide it looks like the pulley can only fit one way on the shaft.

Correct, this is all at TDC. The camshaft opens the valves so if the engine isn't at TDC you can turn it to TDC.
