Does the 1+2 bolt configuration provide sufficient clamping to prevent twisting when under tension from a belt or chain?

From the cad model, it looks like about .079" from centerline. That gives you .15" total drop

Material at the center of a shaft gives very strength in bending or torque. That is why things like drive shafts & airplane wings are often hollow.
