your best bet is to use a dti gauge to find tdc then mark your flywheel and case the turn the engine back 1.6mm on the clock and mark the flywheel again then as you say line up the holes in the flywheel and stator using a 2.5mm drill bit the holes will end up somewhere near the 4-5 o clock position this should get you in the correct screw holes on the stator you can then use the marks you put on the flywheel and case to check the timing with a strobe light once the motors running if you need to
