There is one other option. Proform sells a harmonic balancer cover in chrome or black. It's made of plastic but looks like a high quality aftermarket balancer. Speed shops sell them for about $35.00. The timing mark was perfect on mine.

If your balancer has not spun, it could just have the mark in the wrong place for your pointer. When you check TDC again, paint a line with masking tape that runs from the outer ring down to the center of the balancer. That way, if it spins, you will be able to quickly see it (assuming that the pulley doesn't cover the hub). If it does, paint a stripe on the pulley, too.
