Replacing timimg chain cover gasket/seal 1997, 3.8.....

Am at a point where i am a little overwhelmed. The book tells me to find
TDC, yet is very vague on the procedure. It first told me to remove the
crankshaft vibration damper. Then it tells me to, after installing a
compression gauge in cylinder #1, turn crankshaft clockwise with a socket
and breaker bar, yet there's nothing on the crankshaft anymore. ?????
I'm a little confused. also, it says to disconnect the primary electrical
connectors @ the ignition coil pack/modules, yet doesn't say where these
are. HELP PLEASE!
