Gems for SoO Heirlooms?

I have cleared basicly all HC TBC dungeons to test the different sockets, since wowhead gives an impression that some weird combos still exist. The only two that I ever found to give more than 2+ main stat was 5 int/6 stam (Black Morass) and 5 str/6 stam (The Shattered Halls). Drop chances are pretty random, some times I got 2 gems from 1 run and other times I got 0 in 10+ runs.

Remember these HC dungeons only reset once daily, so if you plan to farm them, you have to switch between chars that are able to enter and solo these dungeons. Around 36+ was fine for me.
I used to run 4 groups of toons (1 group str, 3 groups Intel) daily before SL, until each toon has about 100+ gems, most of the Intel toons were wasted because only gems from black mora remains 5/6. I have reduced to just 2 group runs daily since start of SL, don't want to waste my time in case blizz happily change the 5/6 to 2/2 one day. I was lucky some of my ex70 toons (now lvl27) have these 5/6 on them.
