Carver Mariner 350 serpentine belt tensioner


Greetings,
I had my alternator rebuilt over the winter. On splash day had a chirp from port engine, same as alternator that was rebuilt.

2002 Carver 350 with 6.2 L.

Looking at it, it looks like the belt tensioner pulley is not aligned with the other pulleys and is starting to chew the belt.

I didn’t touch any brackets but somehow the tensioner pulley is now angled. I only see two attachment bolts and both are tight. Has anyone experienced this?

Almost looks like I need a spacer on top bracket bolt but again I didn’t take anything off.

I’m attaching photo of the pulley and added yellow lines to show how the belt should be running.

The photo with arrow shows how the bracket seems to be out of alignment.

Thanks in advance.

UPDATED photo showing pulley and how it’s lined up.
