Campy Veloce crank install -- does this look right?

For Eroica, I'm temporarily swapping out my Nuovo Record BB & crankset for a compact (Veloce) on my Gios.

After one misfire I have the right BB, a Centaur square taper 111mm.
I am using the crank bolts from my NR crankset and just put it all together.
While the drive side looks right, there's a sizable gap between the NDS crank arm and the BB (I'd estimate 5mm). I assume that the NDS crankarm should be close to flush against the BB. Pictures of both sides below.

If that gap is not right, what might be the cause?
NDS BB cup not adequately torqued? (Spec says 70nm, I don't have fitting for my torque wrench but I went pretty hard on it.)
Need different crank bolts? Or just need to tighten further?
Other?
Thanks
