Cory ID - C. pestai, perhaps?

I bought four alleged
C. aeneus last year; one I'm pretty certain is an aeneus, one I'm pretty sure is a C. sterbai - and then there are two others. Based on the Cat-e-Log, they seem to be closest to C. pestai, but I really don't have a clue. Thoughts?

They could be CW008 - "gold line elegans", or they could be C041 males...difficult to tell from the picture I think.
C. pestai has more yellow on top and not the mottled pattern on the sides...not in the specimens I have seen anyway.

Here are a few more pictures of them - are these any more useful?

I would go for CW008, C41 is deeper bodied and both sexes have almost the same pattern.
