Italian Dorcel movies

In the mid-90's Marc Dorcel released tons of italian movies. I have some questions about them though:

a. Although most of the italian movies were only distributed by Dorcel, some were actually CO-Produced. I know that some of the Alex Perry movies were co-produced by 'BP Enterprise', but there are also a few other italian movies, directed by Michael D'Angelo, that were also CO-Produced. So i was wondering if those movies were also by BP Enterprise, or are there other italian companies that co-produced with Dorcel?

b. Many italian movies were released by 'AVO Films', is this a producer or did they only distribute movies in italy?

c. There is some (italian?) guy named 'Tao'. I always assumed this was Franco Roccaforte, but after seeing some italian movies this week i noticed that there werent any black guys in the movie, so i was wondering...is Franco Roccaforte mis-credited as Tao, or are there 2 different Tao's? Any pictures (or description) of the 'white guy Tao' ?

d. "M Dry", "A M Dry", i assume this is director "Alex Martini" as in "Alex, Dry Martini" ?

e. "Cristopher Suss", could this be an old alias for "Christophe Clark" ? The guy looked very pale (and muscular) with short blonde hair. Any other aliasses for this guy?

f. Some of the 'new' dorcel released are directed by 'Di Salvo', assuming this is adamo/d'salvo...did he leave Private? Or is he an independant director?

Hopefully someone can answer these questions.

Tao is a dark skinned fella who looks like a northern-african or a brasilian guy. And is not Franco Roccaforte.

Christopher Suss is a young, blonde, french man and is not Christopher Clark.
