Bent LCA Mount?

I installed 884 OME springs/shocks on the front and a SAW 1.5 coil/OME shock on the rear this spring. Went in for an alignment and was told this was the best they could due because of a seized LCA cam (rear cam on passenger side).

Caster= Left 1.9 Right 1.3
Camber= Left 0.1 Right 0.6
Toe= Left 0.04 Right 0.03
Total Toe= 0.06

I went into this knowing caster wouldn't be great, but my passenger front tire is wearing a little due to the camber being out of spec. I ordered a new OEM LCA and the cam bolts and went in to install them yesterday and noticed that the bracket/mount that holds the rear cam bolt of the LCA is bent! It looks like it is pinching slightly but there is no impact marks from a rock or anything.

I put everything back together, not sure if i could safely bend the bracket back into place. Should I take this to a shop to have them bend it back into place then put in the new LCA? This may be what is causing that cam to not have adjustability.

Would getting SPC UCA with built in caster and camber and not touch LCA be a solution to getting proper alignment?
