So when you say i can scrape some of the black insulation off the wire, do you mean about where the orange tag is?
Yes, but don't nick the wire by keeping the blade at a low angle.

Or if i wanted to add a washer between the two i could just add the washer on top of the current setup and with the new ground underneath it? Im pretty sure another washer would fit on top of the current bolt
Well, if you did it that way it would at least be another nut. I would remove the nut, make sure the connection area was clean, and stack it this way from bottom up:
Bell wire
washer
your new ground wire from grounding block
replace nut.
