A quick adjustment works easily in seconds. If the header isn’t needed, just skip it. You could also try an ARGB plug to straighten things up. It’s a straightforward fix without any complex steps.

I tried to adjust the text slightly, but it’s still not quite right for plugging in the connector. It seems it needs precise alignment with those holes. They probably can’t make smaller holes. I plan to try again tomorrow because it’s already evening and I’ll lay the chassis flat on its side. Plugging the aRGB connector into its header is simpler when the chassis/case is horizontal.

No, they are quite sturdy and difficult to break.

Absolutely, that's why everyone is questioning your reasoning.

I removed the casing from a USB 2 header a few times before and twisted a few pins. After reshaping them, I reinserted the housing and everything worked again. This material is actually more robust than it seems.

The bend isn't severe, it's only slightly off. Use the techniques previously discussed, or add an RGB header to the two bent pins and apply a gentle correction. Skip the RGB header if you prefer, and let it remain unchanged.

Successfully managed it...just a minor twist on the other side. Both pins were bent. I used the plastic tool shown in the photo below. Thanks for your help. As usual, I tend to overthink things.
