Mavic Cosmic Hub compatibility

I bought some Mavic Cosmics off ebay and they came with the original TA 9 speed cassette. The hubs are campagnolo compatible. As my chain was jumping off the worn cassette I wanted to replace it for a new campag cassette.

However upon taking the cassette off, the hub splines dont look like nine speed but 8 as all the splines have the same shape. I tried to fit a 9 speed ultradrive cassette but it is obvious it wont fit as it has the odd shaped keying for the odd spline shape on the 9 speed hub. I need 9 speed so if I cant fit a 9 speed cassette on it then Ill regretebly be selling the wheels.

Here are some shots of said hub. Any ideas?

Can't think of any way you could make this work well I am afraid.

I sold my 8-speed cosmics on BITD for that exact reason.
 
cheers. It appears that original 9 speed TA cassette that came with them was a one off cassette for these freehubs. Typical!

Would it be possible to change the freehub body out of the hub shell? Might see what mavic say.
