K so after I was done and started up the car the timing belt moved left (passenger side) from the center of both cogs. I freaked out thinking it was gonna fall off but held. It is off the sproket and cam just a little bit but holding on. Why is this happening? Even when I move it back a few times it keeps going to that spot. Also I don`t have the little metal piece in front of the timing belt cause the old one got damaged. kinda looks like my belt is vibrating a little, but the car runs fine no ruff idle nor misfiring or anything at all, runs like it always has. Maybe I`m overthinking it all? Advice would help thanks d=-)

Its a non-interference motor. Worst case is that the timing belt breaks and you have to change it on the side of the road, which is easy on the 7a
