Default right side sitting low

Hi all. About a month ago I had the engine jacked up because I was changing a bottom mount. Thinking I was pushing up on the engine I was actually raising the whole car. Well we didn't take that bar off the top of the engine at first, That crosses over the alternator.... my brother got the idea to take it off while everything was on jacks. Down went the car back on the jack. Engine staying where it was. I know...stupid... anyway while driving the stering doesn't want to take a left very easy. I found that more or less air in the right tire will make it turn better or worse. Also driving on the left on the highway, it frees up movement too. What I'm getting at is the higher the right front side is, the better the car turns to the left. Pumping the tire up only help. I'm thinking it's sitting lower and I can't figure out what broke/crushed/smoshed down. I changed the strut/shocks. Nothing. Are there any other mounts I'm missing other than 4 main ones? I feel I need to get that right tire/axel/tierod up more.

Forgot to add I had a front wheel alignment done. I told them what was going on and what had happend. Before I even started explaining the guy said it was the rack. Didn't want to listen to what works and what dosnt. What other have told me it could be. Nothing. He turned the car one 90degree turn to get it in the garage.
