I can't open the link, if you could attach the image using the additional options function then I can also send it to colleagues.

Number 8 in picture B looks like a cold finger condenser

The image is quite low res and the lighting is poor so it is difficult to see what some of them are. I shall have a better look when I am on my work monitor.
