I think the fact that you R&R'd parts caused this issue. It is not
unusual for the blade to be somewhere else after a major parts replacement.
Since the days of assembly line and interchangeable parts that should
NOT happen.

Google "manufacturing tolerances".

There's a reason that saws don't come with pre-cut zero clearance
inserts.

OP likely pushed the C clip out, as per his explanation, WAY back
before making his zero clearance inserts and sleds - before he got to
the point he knew his own strength and how tight things did NOT have
to be.
