Not sure I completely understand the question, but PAPI glideslope can vary according to installation - usually 3-5 degrees but some go higher. Just check the Jeppesen cards.

Some operators recommend that if flying a widebody then fly on 3W/1R because pilot eye-height is much higher than smaller aircraft. Your wheels would land short if flying 2W/2R. Hope this helps.
