Craig I have a CHE 20 (also a Damascus barreled gun) that letters with a Silvers pad. Mine looks like Deans gun in the respect that there is no widows peak. My original pad was in horrible shape, crushed and decrepit in every respect. I did just as you have and replaced it but preserved the original. Unfortunately one of the plugs had fallen out somewhere. It's undoubtly in a Grouse covert in the Upper Peninsula

It's not Bill's PH 8 but here's my GH 8 which letters with the pad as shown
Asking Bill for photos is like asking the best looking girl in your class to the prom. It'd be nice but it ain't gonna happen... |

The inlet spur is an indication that your gun was built that way and since C grades were offered with recoil pads at no additional cost I suspect the original chose the pad. You do have a problem, however, and that is that the Silvers #4 rifle pad does have a spur but it doesn't begin to conform to the spur on the CHE or the PH and they look different also. The #3 Silvers pad is flat and that may be an option if you are willing remove some wood. Galazan stocks the #3 Silvers pads but I don't recommend the cheaper copies they offer as the mounting holes are predrilled and are not always concentric with the plug holes. I also recommend you sand the back of the #3 pad flat for best mounting results. I have also removed the spurred black portion of the recoil pad and attached new rubber to it with high strength clear epoxy which worked well, but it was on a Damascus gun which I never took afield. Good luck with your endeavor!
