I found a bunch of Alphas at 40.73 through 37.69 just West of Gor' gaz outpost. Make sure to hug the walls of the mountain.

Both the Alphas and Whelps can be found in their greatest quantity east of Falcon Watch within the Great Fissure.
Beware of the the Crust Burster variants there. They're easy to aggro while killing Stonescythe's, and they reburrow periodically, sometimes leading to more adds.

Tip: When fighting the both the Alpha's and the whelps and you get the "Stonescythe Alpha (or whelp) defends himself in desperation" notification, stop attacking until until the "Desperate Defense" buff goes away, otherwise they get "Desperate Rage", which is an enrage that stacks up to 5 times and increases their damage by 10 and their attack speed by 5% per application and this can stack up to 5 times, so it quickly raises their damage by 50 and attack speed by 25% if you aren't paying attention.

What to do

StorylineHellfire Peninsula, step 92 of 103

Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

The Broken that live in Outland have endured endless violence. It is of little surprise that as soon as the Dark Portal opened they flocked to it in droves with hopes of escaping this land. Unfortunately for our confused brothers and sisters coming from the south, the rock flayers that inhabit the Great Fissure see them as easy prey. Go there and thin the rock flayer population, so that our kin might have a chance.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Cruel TaskmastersHellfire Peninsula · Level 10-30
You probably think most Broken are evil, don't you? In reality many just lack guidance. Before I met the Omenai, I too was lost. Our minds suffered terrible pain from the orcs' demonic magic. We are easily confused and taken advantage of.
