Line up the cam marks and then the crank pulley marks should be facing up and visible. On my 98 S70, the crank pulley marks were on the ends of the teeth themselves.

On your '99 it is actually two marks at the top of the teeth on the sprocket. When correctly lined up the mark on the oil pump casting lines up with the valley in between the two marks.
