Not sure why you can't change the opening for the slider using a wood filler piece secured with tapcons into the block/brick. Or you could split the differnce on either side and use a 1/2 backer rod to fill the gaps and caulking. Then break a couple pieces of flashing to cover the backer(you can rent a hand brake fairly cheap). Secure the flashing with tapcons to the block--typically a jamb would only have 2 breaks--a 90 degree and then a 45 or less for the kicker--pre-drill the metal so you don't kink it--use touch-up paint on the tapcon heads when done.
