    If it were my motor, I would grab the blade closest to the shear pin and push forward hoping to rock the unit a bit so the shear pin will fit. I am sure that the hub is cocked and from the
    picture it appears that you will not be able to get the shear pin cover over the end because of the pin sticking out. So you will have to take a hammer and tap the pin so it rides over the brass spacer. Once the pin is in place, the cover fits and the cotter pin is in place, take the motor out for a ride. Hopefully the torque of the motor will correct the hub and make it more centered.
