Yes, nut slot. I just faced this with a new-to-me guitar. For now, I have a small piece of .3mm thick blister pack clear plastic in that nut slot, raising the string to stop the buzz. It adds too much height (intonation goes sharp) but until I find something hard and thinner, it'll do. Maybe someone has other ideas for this.
Some day I or a luthier will fill in that nut slot file it down just right. I might find others that need a bit of work as I get to know the guitar.
I hope something like this will work for you. It sounds like your saddle job worked out OK. Congrats.
