Tracking in a still using a Camera Track

Hi guys , 1st post here.
The other day I was given a shot to work on , just basic cleanup get rid of a fire extinguiser against a wall and a picture hanging as well. No problem to do but I was also given an action setup with a flame Camera track with the corresponding axis to the objects pulled out ready to go.
I do my clean frame and import it in and attatch it to the relevent axis.Its in the middle of nowhere , no surprise as when I looked at the data in the parent axis its adjusted pretty much everything(scale is like 2%). From my knowledge the trick is to get the still place at the correct place in 3d space as its the camera thats moving not the scene. My question is:
Is there a track or a tried and tested workflow for getting the correct positioning? I postitioned it perfectly (using scale not Z to get the size) but the track was off. I could have spent hours making adjustments so I wanted to know if theres something simple I’m missing here.
In the end i did it the old fashioned 2d way no problem but it made me think so would like to know for the future.
Thanks in advance
