um im looking at an SAE paper right now that says that the whole hardend area is less then .1mm , including the diffusuon area which is only marginally harder then the base metal, the actual compound layer looks like its more like .025 of a mm. It also says they are soft nitrited, whatever that means.

yes you can re- nitrided its done to crankshafts all the time depending on who dose it, the depth of nitrided will vary ive seen cranks with only about .007 of nitriding all has to do with how hot the oven is and how much gas is in there
