Possible Acacia Obtusifolia I.D. Question

Question

Sorry, i recently just posted this in the Ethnobotany forum mistakenly believe it to be placed in this forum. Here is the quote of the post:

Greetings.

Recently i have been searching out particular alkaloid rich trees, for obvious reasons.

A few of which i have come across i believe to be the illustrious, Obtusifolia species.

Here are a few photos of two particular specimens i have narrowed it down to, i would be very greatful if you could confirm whether or not you believe either of these to indeed be of the Obtusifolia species?

Or possibly even speculate as to what you believe the species to be?

Here is Specimen one:

They are not obtusifolia... but look interesting nontheless.

Obtusifolias have slightly serated blunt tips.

These trees look more like longifolia, but it is hard to tell.
