Default Flywheel question

I noticed there is a notch on the edge of the flywheel when fitting does this have to line up to something?

Probably the dowel, there should be 3 and should easily see that they line up

the 9 bolts to the crankshaft are not equally spaced, so the flywheel will only fit on in one orientation - don't worry about the mark

the notch may simply be a balancing cutout?
