Is this $185 Savinelli 401 from SP Estates sporting a 601 stem (nothing mentioned in conditions)? My worlds are colliding

The bend certainly looks more like the stem that gets put on the 601 Churchwarden—the 401 Churchwarden stem is typically much less curved.

Yeah, looks like a 601 stem to me. The 401s that I own are more straight with a slight bend.

I'm confused.

The info, is for the top pipe yes?

Yes. I have 2.of the 401s and one 601. I thought that it looked clunky and didn't recall ever seeing a stem like that for the 401 churchwarden. Looks like someone did a switcheroo.

My guess is it’s the same stem made for both all the time, just a different bend. They are similar lengths, but not exact so who knows. This 401 looks like it has a 601 for sure.
