Ok just to make sure I have this right.
Disconnect the wire from the coil to the points, that’s the blue and yellow electrical wire just behind my oil reservoir that traces back near the battery

Then place the opening of the point plate just over the viewing area with the marker tab

So now I set the timing mark for cylinders 1-4 on that mark
Do I place it on the F or the T?

So one side of the test light to the positive battery terminal and the other side to the point wire connection, which side? There is an alligator clip and a ground.

So now I need to adjust the plate until the light just goes out, then I screw in the plate and move onto the smaller 2-3 plate .
