Question Arcyria poss?

Another one has me stumped (!) growing on the bark 6' up a thick sapling / stump with moss on either haw or elder or sycamore or willow, this sort of slime mould , closest I can wildly guess is Arcyria leiocarpa, but I have very little confidence in that.
I hope to revisit soon, to confirm substrate and cut through to see if its actually growing on an old bracket, maybe trametes or daedaleopsis.
It seems to have tiny red topped growths on stalks.
Sorry for pic, it was just out of reach for camera stability.
Any help out there please?
Thanks a lot
Ken
