	Did you try:
H*sin (K * pow (pow(abs(x/LX), 2/E) + pow(abs(z/LZ), 2/E), E/2) - y

	Where:
 - H is the height of the waves;
 - K is a constant that defines the wave length;
 - LX and LZ are the dimensions of your stone block;
 - E is the same as the "Value_E" coefficient of the superellipsoid
object.

PS: I haven't tried it, but I think it should work...
