Wow, sharp eyes!  This may be a long shot, bu maybe you can remove that driver and axle and flip it so that the left wheel is on the right and right on the left.  If the gears will allow it, that is and if the crank is wrong on the other side too.  The way I see it, that would be the best solution,  otherwise, try to UNsee it as well as you can. 

Nope, the gear is offset, plus that wouldn't solve the issue.   The right and left driver castings have the key-way in different positions anyway.

The only solution I can see would be to order a front #3 driver, pull off the wheel and install it on the rear #3, assuming I could get it quartered properly.  Way too much work for what the issue is.  I might investigate the key-way at a later date, but for now I'll live with it.
