Yes the guy was an experienced instrument technician, but who specialized in Clarinet and Flute.
It turned out he had no idea about oboe :-(
I was pretty young at the time and just thought my reeds were playing up - I had no idea why C# was sounding so bad. It was years later when I realized that the hole should really be only a slit, and so I experimented with cork under the pad until it worked.
I'm almost certain that is what the professionals do with the diamond - fiddle with their little probe, increasing its size and shape and smoothing the edges until it sound right. Much more of an art than a science.
