That's all well and good but how do we explain that Jock's eyes were hazel and Wes has blue eyes? Which I guess would put an end to any Wes is Jock theories.
those small South American missionary charity hospitals were decades ahead of their time with their “completely transform a burn victim into someone years younger with much better skin” surgeries and flawless eye transplants

I don't understand why nobody tries to find the original script of "Bar-B-Cued" instead of having those endless discussions about the same subject for years. If Wes Parmalee proved to Ellie that he was Jock in a scene that was cut, it will be in the script !
Another way, but much more complicate, would be to find the story outline of this episode.

Over 15 years, I was able to get 98% of the scripts of "Dynasty" and 55% of the scripts of "The Colbys" + 6 seasonal bibles + dozen of story outlines. I'm sure it's possible to do the same with "Dallas" !

Steve Forrest was only one inch taller than Jim Davis.
those online height listings are so unreliable! Jordan Lee’s height is listed somewhere in such inflated form that it’s a wonder he wasn’t moonlighting as a wily veteran backup center for the Dallas Mavericks in between his oil deals.

(ah, here we go: https://wikispro.com/don-starr-wiki-networth-age/ )

Jim Davis appeared to be right around the same height as Bobby, while Ben/Wes/Wyatt/Jock was clearly at least an inch shorter than his hot-tempered, helmet-haired youngest alleged son .

..which makes sense when you think of the spinal compression fractures from the crash and general aging . With experimental height extension surgeries not available in those mysterious South American hospitals until 1986 or 1987, it’s highly plausible that Jock would return a bit shorter.
