From the leaves, they both look like phals. Unfortunately they'll have to remain noid phals, for as Ray says, they're very difficult to identify.

Have you checked on the underside of the leaf? Try to determine if whatever it is lurks on the underside. If Drew is right and it is scale, at this point you can probably wipe them off with a...

Wherever you put them, orient them to the light and then leave them that way, otherwise if they're not facing the light the buds will turn toward the light and get all twisted on the spike.
