I believe the flywheel timing marks stopped being used by the late 30's and 48 timing marks are definitely on the vibration damper. Impressions are not very deep so there is every chance the damper was painted over and paint filled the fine stamping. You might be able to find them by using some paint stripper to remove the paint from around the flat circumference but that is not a given.
Here are a couple of illustrations showing different dampers and marking patterns.

Your engine may have the timing marks on the flywheel. Look for a small access cover or opening in the bell housing right under the starter mount.
