If you take a look at the following example, you'll see that my source
does not exactly offer consistent spacing (obviously hand-engraved).

Still, I think that the inner point of the angle (left by one slanted
line width compared with the pull symbol) of the push symbol is a
reasonably looking reference point for visual alignment with the left of
a given notehead.
