I don't get it.
There is a camshaft gear, an oil centrifugal washer and the damper/fan 
belt pulley. There are two wudruff keys, one for the cam gear and one 
for the damper. Everything should be fastened with the big nut to a very 
high moment. There should be no gaps. If there is any gap then things 
will break I think. I don't think there is any problem if the 
centrifugal washer is not aligned with the wodruff key. You have to use 
shims to align the cam gear with the gear on the cam. If the fan belt is 
unaligned I suppose you can use shims there too, or move the pulley on 
the water pump a little.

fit feels ok. The woodruff key is .975 in length. Is that normal?
