I fully agree with Ian. Just based on the geometrical elements observable on the photograph, it is impossible to conclude whether or not the structures observed are penecontemporaneous.
An interesting observation, though, not mentioned yet, is the presence of some kind of circular 'nodule' in the 'core' of the synform, in both synforms exposed. So, this seems not being a coincidence ... Are these 'nodule' serving as initiation point of deformation? Just wondering ...
