I wonder if the RSR in question was re-tubbed at some point leading to multiple provenance claims.

Yeah, exactly. It's not uncommon for older race cars to have been undergone several iterations of refurbishment or reconfiguration throughout their years of racing, opening the door for one guy with a tub thinking he owns the original car, while another guy with a bunch of unique racing parts from one of the iterations thinking that he owns the car.
