adjust side to side gap on hood

Before I do something stupid, which would a nice change, I thought I would ask the group first. I put the hood on my '67 with it all the way forward in the slots. When I checked to see how the fender to hood gap was one side was tight and the other had about a 3/8" gap. The gap looks even all the way down so the hood is not crooked. I loosened the hood bolt and pushed the hinge over to see if that would help but it didn't. All the parts are OEM so I'm not dealing with an after market issue.

My question is how best can I address this issue? From what I can find out on the forum and internet you just bend the hinge to fender part of the hinge to force it over.
