welcome and glad you got it going
the belt walk is bad. this needs to be corrected.
1: if the head was not removed and the head to block guides (ferrel rings) missing. (canted head, issue)
2: the belt idler shaft. was installed wrong.
i think you did this wrong., you said you had a tight belt going on, and that is impossible. (the stud is loose on idler and its lever)
under the idler there is the spring lever tab. it fits up in side the back side of the idler and must index right. if not the idler will be canted.
and the belt will walk.
phase-II, step 11

see warning 13 on page.
good luck to you . !
ps
that tang has to be inserted blindly that is why it is so tricky.
here is one that got crushed (top one) tang on left. here was an attempt to repair this damage.
