Default Distributor body gap variances

In restoring my 28 Phaeton I noticed some time ago that the gap in the Distributor bodies that I have for the spark control seemed to vary in size. Of the three bodies I have, the width of the gap is 0.975", 0.998" and 1.053". All do not appear to have been modified, but.......

Was/is there a standard size, or are these variations due to different manufacturers?

Just wondering!
