Can't figure if this is a rhino, oreodont or something else from White River

Hi all, I have a Ogliocene-aged partial fossil jaw from the White Rivers Badlands.

 

The seller identified this as a Hyracodon nebraskensis. It measures 2.8 inches across.

However, two other friends with White Rivers fossils protested this ID. One said it's Subhyracodon instead. The other believes it could be Oreodont.

 

Can anyone tell if this is a rhino? Thank you.

Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!

It is not the teeth/jaw of an Oreodont.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, also are remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. - Douglas Adams, Last Chance to See
