It appears that the cam gear is thicker where you layed your straight edge. This would give you a false reading.

Thanks for your comment, I can see your theory, in reality you could set the alignment off the teeth edges, the allowances in the chain fitment on the teeth and the end floats are adequate to not cause any issues doing it this way as per the manual though.
