I agree,
That doesn’t look like a typical Southern Pacific. But if that is what it is, and it very well could be, it is one sweet looking Helleri. I have worked with hundreds of Southern Pacific’s, and one thing that I have noticed is that they all appear a little different. I've seen some adults that are the classic black phase, and others that appear light and well defined.
I agree that yours has a similar appearance of an enyo. But I can only see it on the side pattern. However, if you say it is a helleri, I believe you. Southern Pacific’s have a wide range of appearances and are an amazing species of rattlesnake.

Congrats on the spectacular snake:
