I don't think it's gonna take a much shorter pushrod to get the pattern more centered on the valve stem.

I've been thinking about what you said. From what I've read and videos I've watched. my pushrods isn't to long. The marks on the valve stem tips are to close to the intake side. If the marks was closer to the exhaust side then they would be to long.

The pattern is too far inboard for my tastes. Which is what leads me to believe they are too long. But, not by much.

Are the lifters pumped up? Stock heads?

Well I guess I lied to ya. the heads was a bare set. And then set up for my cam. I'll upload a pic of what was done to the heads.
