Not a very good agent!
take the starter back out and inspect the ring gear on the flywheel for damage.

Maybe,
But if asked to fit a starter that's exactly what I do,
Usually you don't go peering into the hole where it fits to check the ring gear!
And I usually find it's worn in just one small location on the diameter.
You can look in and see nothing wrong,
The flywheel has to be rotated to check the entire circumference.
Which is a pain to do.
Besides which I'm am little confused by your first post,
Timing?
What timing?
Only timing I can think off on that engine is on the opposite end of the engine.
