Correct, thank you!
1st shop honed w/o a plate, motor was run for a few hundred miles - long enough to smooth out the cross-hatch and add some vertical lines to the bore.
2nd shop RE-honed WITH torque plate. The previous "vertical" marks were obliterated by the new cross-hatch - EXCEPT around the areas where the bolts ended, where there were circular areas that still had the vertical marks.
I wish I had a photo.
