If I understand you correctly, what you need is a version of the Lotus eccentric hub with more shoulder and less spigot... correct?
Correct. I thought about a spacer but given the thing has to stay in place i opted out of the spacer just more parts to come loose besides as you noted it would turn into a cheeseburger of parts...

I'll keep you posted, my mind has been keeping me awake tonight going over dimensions in my head. I'm also thinking of lessening the eccentric offset of the 10mm hole by a few mm to allow for more control when tensioning, as you mentioned and as i've found out it's bloody sensitive! Not too much or it will make installing the belt a little hard for some but just a little. Enlarging the diameter of the shoulder would be nice so it butts up against the full spot face on front seal housing.
