[22re]This means my crank sprocket timing is off, right?

So, Im replacing the head gasket and I left the truck sitting for a while and forgot a few things..

From what I've seen, when the pistons are at TDC, the sprocket dimple should be also.
I think I left some slack on the chain and the sprocket jumped a few links, cause there's no way I set the timing like this when I replaced the chain...

If so, could I just mark the link that's at TDC, rotate the sprocket to line up, and be on my way for now?


Here is a link to the picture

As long as the crank and cam timing marks are where they need to be the chain is just a chain.
