Block Not Centering On Node

I've got a parking bumper ("PB") point style in my template, and it's using a description-only label style. The issue I'm running into is that the node doesn't center inside the PB block, and I can't figure out why. There are no offsets being applied anywhere that I'm aware off, and I've already checked the block DWG to confirm that the center of it is at 0, 0, 0. I even verified that the geometric center isn't for some reason off to the side like that, just to be sure. Do any of you know what the issue may be? The node centers in the blocks for all of my other point styles, to the best of my knowledge.

I've attached the CAD file for the original PB block as well as the one for the point style.

Thanks for uploading the files.  It looks like I was able to adjust the block origin point within the "PB Issue.dwg" drawing and it seems to have fixed it.  I'm wondering if it was just the block definition not updating when bringing the modified block.

Here's the modified file.  Let me know if this works for you.

That's so strange. I'm not sure why the origin point was off like that, and for whatever reason didn't even think to check that. Thanks for your help!
