I have a Guard & a Center both level 55.
The guard plays RG.
The Center has 28 pancakes and has +7 Str / +7 Blk than the Guard
The Guard has 84 pancakes and has +6 Spd / +3 Agi than the Center
Their run blocking trees are nearly identical favoring the Center. (5&6's & 5&7s)
But the guard has 4 more Vision & 4 more Confidence.

Is vision and confidence a player in Pancakes?

the center and RG usually double team the NT. Does the guard play any special teams?

nope, so the center must be standing him up and the Guard taking him out of the play ... a lot!

could be something to do with the players height and weight, and from experience confidence is important for Oline players, I have seen that many of the best RG's for pancakes also have very high confidence

yep. It also happens with OT/TE double teams on DEs. OT is first to engage, then TE comes in and gets the pancake.

Also, the C is almost always going to be blocking the NT or the other DT. The RG has more shots at blocking LBs and blitzing DBs, and those guys are much easier to pancake.

RGs pull a lot more than any other player so they get to take out weaker LBs. Also if you ever play a team that runs a 3-4 the G gets to pancake LBs. At least thats my experience.
