Butia odorata seeds ?

[Dartolution]

Not the best at ID'ing butia seeds, so I thought I would post and ask. 

Over the last several years there have been 2 large blue pindo growing at an old closed restaurant near a nursery I like to visit. 

Today I decided to stop by and collect some fruit/seeds since its that time of year. 

There was plenty on the ground, but I grabbed a few sprays off of the tree itself just in case bugs had gotten into the fallen ones. 

These seem smaller than what I have seen growing down in the panhandle and south Alabama. 

Im pretty sure they are odorata, but would like others expertise on that matter

Cleaned off 3 of them under the sink for show. Trying to debate which way Id like to germinate these this time. I haven't had any luck with cracking them, they always end up succumbing to fungus after they pop.

Here are some images:

I found some from a Florida ebayer with larger fruits at least it looked that way in photo @ Odarata. I tried to research most ppl say they vary sort of like peaches with many natural crosses and nursery field crosses... so seek out a good fruit size... the common east coast ones seem to have the largest fruit but are either another type or a cross and not as hardy as the ones more common in Texas...  some are less tolerant of wet feet and some just fine, I've read. I lost some beautiful ones over the uri storm I wish I had planted them in ground the house warmth was not enough 

The longer seeds might be Catarinensis which I think maybe the popular east coast fruit or a cross. They have the more exotic look longer fronds. I found at least one with smallish cherry sized fruits growing in Dallas. Odarata seeds are mostly round and the fronds are shorter and more obviously twisted.

There is a pretty green version too they are more firm looking but I have no idea about their fruits

Also, some of the fruit ended up being rounded.
