Putting the camshaft pully back on, is there supposed to be a key?

My camshaft has a notch in it like it should have a key (similar to the crankshaft), as does the pulley. The pully has a key slot as well as a round plug. I don't recall there being a key in the shaft, and the pully does go on tightly with just the round plug filling the camshaft groove.

Subaruparts.com does not show a key for this, but it does show the crankshaft key. This makes me think there is not supposed to be one.

Before I go and do something stupid, can someone tell me if there should or should not be a key on the pulley or the camshaft?

Thanks everyone, I see the finish line now!!!

PS - I have a good number of pictures to help add to the Timing Belt How To. I think a concise document with pictures would help tremendously. This is not a hard task, it's just tedious.
