If you haven't moved the oil pump shaft, it can only be fully seated in two positions, 180 degrees apart from each other. One of these will be right, the other will be wrong. If you can't figure out the position at all, it'd be best to turn the engine over to #1 TDC firing, use a long screwdriver to line up the oil pump drive shaft, and then drop in the distributor.
