That sucks. I don’t know if those shoulder bolts are available separately from OMC, or are available elsewhere like http://www.mcmaster.com/# or Fastenal
The bolts must pull straight up and evenly, and the top of the puller be perfectly parallel to the top of the flywheel . I would get 3 new 2 1/2 grade 8 bolts , make a mark at 7/16 ths and wind them in to the flywheel to that depth and no more. Make sure to use the correct washers too.
If you read back in this thread, you’ll see you are not the only one to have done the upside down thing. 😥
