I have never used a timing light on a Austin Seven in over thirty years of ownership.
I just set front cylinder to TDC on compression and turn the dizzy till the points just open.
This should be good enough to get the engine running then adjust the timing for best tickover speed.
Then do some road testing to fine tune further.
