The shift tube is a tube, and it is round. It runs almost the full length of the column (see arrow in picture). The shifter lever connects to the top and the flat arm connects to the bottom.

So my next task was the indicator is way out of whack to the left.

Did you do this, also in post #15??

"After you have done that open the hood and loosen the adjustment bolt at the top of the rod that connects the transmission and the shifter arm on the steering column, crawl under the truck and manually shift the transmission into Park. Hold it in Park while someone puts the shift lever in the park position up above, then tighten the adjuster bolt back up. This should correct your problem."

Be sure and block your wheels before you start this.
