Actually, you are both right. Leblanc created mouthpieces for a long time using the brand name Woodwind. Woodwind and Brasswind also has mouthpieces under the brand Woodwind but I believe they were created well after the Leblanc models were no longer being produced.

The WWBW models while having different designs than the Leblanc models still come from a very reputable source when it comes to hard rubber mouthpieces and are a step above the generic student models.

"Woodwind" clarinet mouthpieces are made by Leblanc and are quite good. They are not "stencils".
