Surely, the man on the right is one who's supposed to be Antonio Calò. As for whether it really is him... well... that's a different matter. Personally, I see a similarity, but the picture is very soft/blurry, and that makes it very hard to say anything for sure.

The picture where I really do not see Antonio at all, however, is the one from Il generale dorme in piedi (1972).

For me It's not him in Il generale dorme in piedi (the moustache man with officer hat) because the face is too small.

The man pushed by the nurse in Lezioni di violoncello con toccata e fuga (1976) for me is not Calò at all. Look at the pointed nose. Calò has a potato nose.
