Is there anything wrong with using an already active single sig seed phrase generated with dice?
Nope, that's fine to keep using.
Do you still keep the descriptor file on your PC?
Yes, doing so is no different than having a watch-only wallet on your PC.
How did you stamp the xpub/descriptor onto metal, like you would the seed phrase?
I don't go this far but the only user friendly way to do so that I've come across is via a SeedHammer.
