I've got an old Homer with the tapered spacer (on the non-freewheel side), it looks slightly different from yours. After adding a washer to the axle on the opposite side, it was pretty symmetrical. I see yours protrudes enough already, though.
I don't think yours are too far out if you were to measure in each direction from the centre of the hub.

inside the hub strange to me it has to be inserted from the other side and held in with a clip
