Really, I'd take a good look at the whole structure and try to see if that "weird gap" isn't there for a good reason. Sometimes things like that are designed in to allow for drainage or independent movement. I've made the mistake in the past of "fixing" things that didn't look right to me, and then later finding out exactly why they were the way they were.

I was wondering about that.. lt wouldn't drain anything out of the basement, based on its position. It's not between 2 structures (is is part of an addition, but that was done at once). Maybe there is an air gap necessary when they put down the vapor barrier and concrete over the bedrock? Perhaps to let air in so that water underneath can drain away?
