I think it will take both adjusting the physical movement of the stick via the sleeve AND adjusting the leaf switches. I'm just surprised that they are so far off from where they should be. I can see that it would be easy enough to make an 8-way from a 4-way.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's exactly what the previous owner tried to do.  Bend them back to where they should be and make a determination at that point.  The plastic part doesn't really look too bad, at least from what I can tell from small photos.  The wear would need to be pretty severe to close two properly adjusted switches.
