1/2" plus some seems like quite a bit to me. I just did 2 of them and I don't think I went in but maybe 1/4". Then again, I did Commands and you have a Mag, but the rule of thumb is better to shallow than too deep. Too deep can block oil passages, and unless you don't get it in all the way, you can't really go too shallow.
