Is there a certain way to lign up?
Since the pump is rotating, I don't believe you need to align the arrow with the drive rotor (rotating portion) of the pump.
This link states that the crankshaft "set key" is facing down before installing the timing chain cover, which covers the oil pump.

As you stated, there isn't any mention of the arrow alignment.

Another reference regarding the oil pump is this.
Using dial indicator, check oil pump drive shaft gear thrust clearance when moving gear back and forth.
See Fig. 16 . Standard oil pump drive shaft gear thrust clearance is .0016-.0063" (.040-.160 mm) with
maximum thrust clearance of .0118" (.300 mm). Replace oil pump drive shaft gear and or/timing chain
cover if thrust clearance exceeds maximum specification.
Arrow pointing to inspection site?

Another reference to the crankshaft key.

Installation
1. If installing crankshaft front seal in timing chain cover, use hammer, Handle (SST 09316-00011) and Seal
Installer (SST 09316-00051). Install seal until seal surface is even with timing chain cover. Apply grease
to seal lip of seal.
2. If installing pump drive shaft gear on crankshaft, rotate crankshaft until key in crankshaft is facing
downward. Install pump drive shaft gear on crankshaft. If installing oil pump drive shaft gear, apply
engine oil to splines at center of gear where shaft of oil pump drive rotor engages. Install oil pump drive
shaft gear.

Thanks guys that key reference is the crank that faces down and lines up gears for top dead center alignment
I couldn't find any arrow in FSM or Chilton books.
Anyway it's easy to get to if something needs changed later.

Bump
Reading this and going through the FSM I'm not clear, can I change out the oil pump rotar gear set without pulling the timing chain cover.
