Default Crank Trigger Wheel for timing

I am in the process of installing Kpro and put the new crank trigger wheel on my car last night(2002). Then i put the timing cover and oil pan all back on. Now i got myself second guessing if I got caught up in the moment and didn't put the wheel with the "outside" labeled side, facing outward. Is there anyway to check this without totally pulling the pan and timing cover again? Does KPRO not start the car if timing is off like the stock ECU?

I think it should be possible to check and confirm if you put it in correctly if you look down the hole were the crank timing sensor goes.
Might need one of those small inspection cameras to get a good view though.
When you turn the crank and look down in the hole there are two tooth's that you should see arrive before the notch in the trigger wheel.
Here is a picture of the old (left) and new (right) trigger wheels

I believe you can remove the crank pulley and check with a mirror.

Also based on the above pic, you can remove the crank sensor, set crank at tdc, and see the double-tooth there at 1 o'clock through the sensor mounting hole. If it's backwards, the double-tooth will not be visible as it will be at 11 o'clock.

It was tricky getting the right angle but peering in through the sensor hole did it. Thanks!
