The cupped side of that blue seal (shown in your pic) will be toward the inside of the engine.
The dished metal object is the oil slinger, it goes inside of the timing cover, with the dish facing out. The balancer will butt up against it.
It seems from the pic, you installed the fuel pump eccentric wrong. It should be flat against the timing gear, and the bent in notch should go into the cam pin hole. It is offset to actuate the fuel pump (hence the word eccentric).
That bolt holding it looks way wrong. It should have an extended tip that will be an certain distance from the timing cover. The eccentric should not be holding the cam back in the block, that bolt should be the farthest item hanging out there. I think you should have around .020" from the bolt tip-to the front cover, with the gasket on the block.
