Looks about right - the lobe with the scallop is neutral position.

If the problem is that you can't get it to turn, rotate the output shaft while attempting to turn the shift drum. also apply a slight drag to the input shaft at the same time. Doing this will allow the dogs on the gears to align, so that they can engage. This mimicks what happens with the engine running. I always do a bench test like this, before I go any further to make sure the trans is assembled properly, and will work correctly when the engine is installed.
