It looks like to much blue was used.
A look at the pinion end as well as the crownwheel will help.
My back axle was set up using a gauge which might well have been an original Austin one Borrowed from a fellow owner and fettler.
Best of luck with your setting up
At least we have quite a lot of adjustment on our axles to vary the pinion engagement with the shims then sideways mesh adjustment on the castle nuts.
Have you tried fitting the crownwheel in a different bolt orientation to se if the runout can be reduced.
It only takes a tiny bit of dirt or a burr on a hole edge to cause run out.
