It sounds like the murky water is clearing some. It's sounding like the typical hardened wear pad attached to the tip of a rocker like this. You say the pad is 1/8 to 3/16 thick. The valve tips would not all be centered on these pads when assembled. One valve might wear the center of the pad, another valve to the left or right. It would vary depending on the placement of a particular valve tip to a particular rocker at assembly. Maybe that is why you describe them as none being the same. This is normal. The machinist would dress that pad to remove the groove and smooth it up, just to clean up, and to follow the curvature that is there. If the pad is worn thru or so thin there is too little left after dressing it is scrap. Pad hardness could be checked by your machinist I would think he would have a hardness tester. The pad may be case hardened or hardened thru, hard to tell from here.
