The one that's in the horn! But seriously my pipe is stuck in there and I never bothered to get it out. I'm fairly certain it's the most open one.

The stock Rath small bore pipes all seem to be really great.

I have not played an R1, but in my experience playing the R4, I tried all the leadpipes. I found they are quite different from each other, and you will likely find a clear choice. FWIW, in the R4, I picked the 41B.
