I haven't had the opportunity to try to take the cover back off yet, but when the engine was out, I tried to see if it had any give to it, and it didn't seem to. Could anything be obstructing it from behind that I'm not thinking of?

Yeah, the pulleys being out of alignment was my biggest worry if I considered shimming it. It's just weird how the bottom has a little bit of a gap, almost like the pump is not quite parallel or something, i dunno...
