what all do i need to do to make sure my disturbutor is installed correctly? the rotor should point to the #1 plug wire, correct?

i belive i have the engine at TDC, but how should i make sure. i heard air coming out of the #1 spark plug hole, but i wanna make sure. the balancer is set at 0 degrees, so with that along with the air coming out, should that be the definant TDC?

when i drop the distrubutor in, the rotor will turn as the gears line up, correct?
