Mark, The cutlass is water lubricated. The shaft should go through the center of the log in the bottom of the boat when it is concentric with the bore in the strut. Something is off. Ether the strut is bent or it has shifted on the hull. You can use the shaft to bend the strut but I wouldn't! You may bend the new shaft. Find out what the problem is. What is the history of this boat? The shaft coupling had fretted so this boat has been run with a major alignment issue. Did you end up with the single or the double taper? How's the transmission?
