No, I haven't seen this. I think the vendors should provide the numbers, like in the data sheet. This is more useful and flexible than letting vendors hard code the numbers into the source code of device drivers.

You can try the "Calibration procedures" in IEEE 1588-2019, Annex N.
Or if you have end to end PPS outputs (from the GM server and the client) then you can simply compare them with an oscilloscope and correct any static offset with the ptp4l "delayAsymmetry" configuration option.
Or if you have auxiliary event inputs on both server and client, feed a pulse generator into both, compare time stamps, etc.
Also linuxptp supports Meinberg's NetSync Monitor method.
Also there are commercial vendors that rent/sell test equipment for PTP networks.
So there are many possibilities.
HTH, Richard
