A little help identifying a keyway?

I am stumped on what keyway this is. I bought a lot of locks off ebay, and I got a few like this. It's kind of like a reverse Yale Y1; but the curve isn't quite as extreme, and the second flat on the left is 1/3rd shorter. I wanted to try to learn impressioning on this, but I need a blank to do that.

I'm not an expert (other side of the pond) , but this looks to me like a Ilco A1012-D1

I got that from the Ilco key blank catalog Section 2 , page 18.

According to the Master Lock service manual, their part number for the key is K400 and W400. It is used for their safety lockout padlocks.

Also, your keys appear to be Corbin, and the matching blank in the catalog has a Russwin/Corbin key head which I would expect. I think you are on the right track (blank 1012-D1).

That's definitely an Ilco 1012-D1 or the D12. I'll see about ordering one from somewhere, unless someone here has a spare or two I could buy/trade/steal off of them :D *cough cough I've seen gw's post*
