Your assumption is incorrect. When the rotor is at the # 1 wire spot on the distributor the pointer should line up with the timing mark at the pulley. At this position, both rockers on # 1 cylinder should be loose (valve lash). This is top dead center. The chain is probably ok (but looks loose) - you have to remember that the crank goes around twice in relation to the cam.
As dmsfrr said, don't confuse the chain marks with setting up the distributor at TDC
Remember #1 cylinder is the front cylinder on the right (passenger side of the engine.
