in 24 and 28 it could be Nino Di Napoli.
Nino is Born in 1910, there is Nino in 1946

Yes, I think you're right. It's an unimportant role, but at least it is a speaking part. It's odd that he would be credited when the other guy he is arguing with is not, but then the credits in this film don't make too much sense anyway when actors in quite large speaking roles like Calisto Calisti, Umberto Sacripante and Alfio Caltabiano are uncredited while non-speaking Harold Bradley and Umberto Silvestri are.

I'm not so sure about this one. The actor in 16 and 20 possibly, though this would be an unlikely role to be credited. The actor in 1 and 41 is a different actor/role and his features (nose, mouth) seem quite different to the images of Laurentino.

Or maybe this could be Laurentino as the actor arguing with Di Naopli, which would make more sense if he is credited? While it is a speaking role unfortunately you don't get to see him any more clearly than this.

Oh, sorry, Reynoso is the one with decidedly less hair:-)))

Here is Lucio De Santis in 3 other peplum roles from around the same time, but I really don't see anyone in any role that could be credited who resembles him at all

In all 3 images he is the actor seen most prominently. If it's him (which I'm now not absolutely certain about) in the first image, from Erik il vichingo, then he looks somewhat different because his eyebrows are shaved and his hair is dyed. The other 2 I'm certain that it's him.

Here are more images of him from westerns found online.

If none of these are him then the only possibility is that he was a phantom actor who didn't appear in any of the films where he is credited and he was not a c.s.c. actor so this seems unlikely.

ANICA and IMDb both say he plays a character named "Marduk" in Io Semiramide, but as far as I could tell there was no character by this name, the nearest being Saruk, which is the fighter played by Jeff Cameron, but both sites misidentify other roles so cannot be relied upon.

Is that Gaetano Scala in 53? (And, btw, the guy that comes closest to de Santis for my old eyes is the one on the left of 41... but I'm quite sure he is not)
