Ouch. That fan needs to be replaced. (I didn't see a new fan in your list.) If you don't replace it, the shims will slide into the grooves on the fan and the whole thing will be out of balance. It'll tear up the shims and the half-pulley while rattling your alternator around.
The fan should look like this:
No grooves at all in there.
