Would it be possible to align these correctly, or just use a single
space between type and value?

I'd prefer explicit commands like:
cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/sys_vendor
cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_name
cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_version

This results in a few more lines in the report, since we have the
following structure:
# <command>
<output of command>
<newline>
# <command>
...

Adding at least one additional newline per file read, but there would be
no need for cd-ing, printing the filename with grep and trying to align
the output.
