My builder was very specific about bunk locations. X across at the back, tapered to Y in the front, based upon the design of the hull structure.

Generally speaking, most aluminum extrusions/structural are 6XXX series aluminum which are technically not "bendable", although some you can do a bit of "cold forming" before the material stress cracks.
3XXX and 5XXX series aluminum are very malleable. I'd cut the damaged section out/away and...
