As are you ARF-GEF :D ! Thank you for posting the links, I was not able to find any information on this lock. Thank you for the insight on torpedo-shaped key pins, do you have any pictures of these, as I have not seen them before.

Not the exact one I was talking about but the torpedo shaped looks very much like the first one here:
