you get the tools that align it. buy them from most motorists stores.
how do you know the valves are ok ? you can't tell unleess you remove the head , put a new cam belt on , or do a compression test.
1.8 diesels 99% of the time do damage as there is no clearance between valves and piston.

one of the aligning pins gos in a hole behind alternator to get top dead centre
second pin gos in the pump pulley at top
third pin gos in head pulley just off centre to the left.
