Hi
I have an original here
the outer edge is just over an inch deep
while the inner edge (near the door glass) is about 1/2" deep
looks correct to me
Wouldn't surprise me that it was like that considering it's being viewd from the drivers seat , the angle is most likely because depending on how it's adjusted the edge of the mirror would be outside the edge of the mirror housing ?
It's been a long time since I've had a pass side one of those mirrors.

Yes they are angled for the driver.
When you get them on, tell us if you can actually see out of it and use it in normal driving.
My original coded for passenger mirror still does not angle inward enough for me to see anything useful out of it. Even though it has that angle in it like posted above. I know many other A-body owners that say the same.

The problem is that if you put the mirror where it is more useful the wing window may not open all the way, been there, done that. 
AND the wing window post is in your line of sight!
