Or you can use Muffs to force water into the inlet.

i have a fivehorese penta outboread engine is it water cooled or air cooled

To be honest you may end up taking this car to a dealership to have the timing set. Anytime you mess with timing belt/chain cam gears on a volvo, you need a special Volvo tool to lock the cams down. This is why alot of independent shops will not service the timing belts on a volvo. But i will try to explain this a little to you. If you are lucky the marks will be there. On the top cover after pulling off the front cover there are notches in the black cover and in the gears. On the crank there are marks on two of the high spots and in between that is TDC. Set the cam gears up and then look down to identify the marks on the crank gear I hope this helps

I hope you've solved the problem by now, but there are alignment marks on the crank shaft (top pulley), idler (lower side), and cam shaft (smaller, bottom pulley) which should be aligned with stationary marks on the timing belt rear cover.

The belt has marks that align with the aforementioned marks (lines). The double marks on the belt align with the camshaft marks and the single marks with the others.

Loosen the tensioner clamp (nut) to allow the spring loaded tensioner to press on the belt and retighten the nut.

Rotate the crank shaft (clockwise, probably two revolutions) and make sure the pulley marks realign to the marks on the cover (they don't have to realign with the marks on the belt).

Rotate the crank shaft a full revolution once the belt is on and check that alignment is preserved.

Periodically loosen and retension the tensioner nut (access through a hole in the cover) to ensure that tension is maintained as the belt relaxes.
