Messed up alignment

I bought the car with 116k on it
Pulled to the left
Subsequently performed an alignment on it
Discovered one the cams on the toe adjustment arm in the LR was stripped and that the alignment nubs for the cam/s on the subframe were worn down completely, thus causing the cam lobe to be difficult to get into place.

The left paper is the before and after I was able to achieve with a lot of fiddling with parts in poor condition.

I recently installed used H&R coil overs and my front camber went from nearly perfect to have 1.6 a degree of difference from side to side. Also my rear was once again messed up which was annoying.

If I got adjustable rear toe and camber arms, would I need to also replace/repair my subframe alignment nubs(not sure the technical term) or could i just align them to the best of my ability and make the adjustments needed with the telescoling arm?

Additionally, for the front camber, ive heard conflicting views on the adjustability that the stock form provided for the owner. Should I get camber/caster plates(or some kind of additional adjustment "things") or use the factory adjustments to get everything green?
