Trying to find facts about Heliamphora Godzilla

I am trying to determine if Heliamphora Godzilla is a new species, a variety or subspecies of an already described species, a natural hybrid, a horticultural hybrid, etc. I have researched online, and there is a lot of conflicting information across different sites and mentions of this plant. I really want to find the accurate, true answer, preferably with some documentation or reliable resources to back it up. Additionally, I'd like to know the origin as well (native range, or if it's horticultural, who developed it and which species were crossed, etc). I emailed one expert but haven't got a reply yet.
 
The origin is either Wistuba, or one of their direct sources. Best chance of getting an exact answer is to contact them.
 
'Godzilla' is H. tatei x nutans (giant). It was also distributed as 'Vuvuzela' very early on.
