Yep, I use a piece of 1/4"x2"x3" piece and it worked fine for both mass
and damping. For a damping magnet I used a 1/2"x1" long cylindrical
neodymium magnet.
The seismo isn't a Lehman exactly, but a garden-gate horizontal made
of aluminum angle. The Lehman would probably require a bit heavier chunk.
I also used a small piece of 1/4" copper for the mass/damper in a vertical
pendulum (similar to S-G).

Subject: copper weight
has anyone tried copper instead of lead for the weight on a Lehman? The
idea being that it could also be used for magnetic damping.
