Cast iron
I don't think it is 8" tall though.
I had a similar job last year and couldn't find any cast iron baseboard that was approx. 8" tall.
I think the shortest I could find was 10".0 -
Used stuff
Bauer Bros. salvage in Minneapolis has had this 7'' Weil stuff in recent past. Probably do not have factory tin work for corners, but I saw some once there. They are not necessarily cheap but you can bargain..
Mine here at home measures about 7 1/2 inches off floor installed.

9 7/8" is governale and burnham
the only short stuff I know of is used. Some radiator salvage yards have it but it is not that common. what about some nice ornate radiators? Show the heat instead of hiding it!Cost is what you spend , value is what you get.
