Take a fresh look. The cage is right side up. The pulley nearer the cage pivot is on top and the far one below, which is correct. However, the inner cage plate may be upside down, but it looks right in one photo (could be camera angle).
To the OP, the inner cage plate should mount so the side that wraps around the pulley is on the bottom. In correct use, the pulleys have outer guide rails on 3 sides, both on the bottom, and outer only on top, with the inside upper pulley exposed for shift clearance.
I see other issues, like maybe the upper bolt not being correct in the hanger (camera angle?) Upper stop tab mispositioned?
Without having it in my hands it's hard to know what other issues there may be, if any.
