Had to change the headset bearings from my Specialized diverge a1 2015. Couldn't get a clear read of the brand and markings from the old bearings but it seems it had "TH MR 155-1-1/8 45° x 45° 55".
Went to local Spezialiced dealer bikeshop with the old bearings and asked for new ones.
It seems that the bottom bearing won't sit correctly on the fork crown – called the bikeshop and they said it should not be a problem if there's a slight gap. Didn't realise that there's a gap on the top too.
Any ideas is this going to be a problem and how should i fix this?

Looks like a meme
that bearing size is correct as is the race angle. I would double check the top is seated completely and if it is, ride it.
