I too have doubts about the story as the seller did not give me any evidence other than their word. Also what do you mean by the rest of that? If you mean that he played on Opuses not Legacies, I have seen video where it at least appears like he did play on Legacies. Here are links if you want to see what I am talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWewMaGQ4lc
and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWewMaGQ4lc (at 1:58 into the video you can most clearly see the instruments)
On both of these, the clarinet he is playing has the right hand C#/G# trill key that I do not think was on Opuses, and is a characteristic feature of the Leblanc by Backun Legacy and Symphonie models.

One of the first things I did when I got the instruments was to clean the tone holes. I did find some crud in there, but I tried my best to get all of it out. When I get the chance to bring it in to my technician, I will have him do a more thorough cleaning.
