having spoken to the OP it sounds like the flywheel has been machined to allow the only currently available or some specially made or other thrust washers to be used to set the end float on his rebuilt engine, he was going to talk to the engine builders for clarification hopefully he will post up once he knows more, the flywheel is genuine VW

Here's an image of said flywheel

And on further inspection of the face it's got loads of small cracks in it and looks like it's been getting really hot with all the black patches so I think it's time for a new one!
