It says "WWF9/10/11 tips 6/18/02". This other line has welded loops on both ends but looks really long to be a add-on tip. I thought it was a totally different line.

Think Rio still has a facility here in Idaho Falls but when I called the IF number I reached an office in Washington. Might drive by there today and see if anyone there might know anything about these lines. Thank you guys!
Impossible to tell, all the prototypes are usually marked X something or other. That line is over a decade old so I doubt anyone there will recall, not to mention they're not intended for the general public.
