I was unable to find Torv Dubstomp in Thunder Totem as the quest text suggests. I found him in Highmountain instead.

Description
When the Legion was attacking, I met with a member of the Highmountain Tauren who had a knack for making and playing drums. Torv usually keeps to himself, but he is as brilliant as he is insane. If there is anyone who would know where we could get the raw materials for something of this magnitude, it would be him. Head to Thunder Totem, and ask Torv Dubstomp if he can think of a suitable source of scales. Preferably something still living, so its power is still fresh.
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.

I found Torv on the lower level of Thunder Totem.
Thunder Bluff (Mulgore) and Thunder Totem (Highmountain) are different places. I made this exact same mistake.
