Default alternator / power steering bracket or washer?

I seem to have a misalignment issue with my serpentine belt setup.

The issue is that all of my pulleys align nicely except for the power steering and alternator pulleys, which are attached to the same bracket.

I'm wondering if there is a wqsher/spacers that I could possible put on the back of the bracket to make the power steering and alternator pulleys stick out more to adjust the alignment???

All ideas are welcomed and any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

You can always be innovative and use stainless washers and longer bolts if needed.
Maybe the OEM has a fix if aftermarket belt system.

Thanks so much everett! I didn't know if it was OK to put things between the block and the bracket. Good to know!

I had taken the bracket apart before, but I couldn't get it to budge. Now i found another bolt, that I think will allow me to move the brcket.

So I'm just going put some spacers on it tonight and see what happens.
