Using your needlenose pliers, or in the case of this guide the iFixit reverse tweezers, very carefully bend the octave pin either towards or away from the body of the saxophone, depending on how it is misaligned.
The octave pin is very delicate. Bending these pins too far can potentially break them. Use small increments to be sure the pin is aligning properly.
