Odd Benotto?

The decals look like ones used on Benotto 5000 in the mid 80s. So possibly repainted?
Does it have braze-on RD cable stop?
Can you meassure the seat tube ID?
Pictures of the underside of BB shell.
It does, a Campag type on top of the stay, and strangley further from the drop out than all the Benottos I can see?
I'll have to check again, but it's over 2mm at the top!!!
The BB shell has absolutley no markings, just two ovalised cut outs. Posting an image of another frame, but exactly the same as mine.

I don't think I'll ever know what it is. Weighed it again at my mates workshop and we got 2.7kg frame and fork.
I'll repaint it in classic Benotto champagne.
Then build it up, I have early 600 except the bolt on calipers, but I can convert some. And I have a hardly used wheelset with MA2 rims.
Plus of course a Cinelli Olympic stem and criterium bars.
Not exotic, but ideal for future historics.
