The arrow points to the slanted washer. If you don't have it, then those Dia-compe 960's are impossible to align. They weren't easy to begin with.
But it looks from the pictures that the brake pad comes off at a different angle than the post, so I bet you just need to loosen the nut and rotate the washer around so the pad contacts the rim correctly.
