Initially I thought they might be Venturiocistella pini but that doesn't seem to fit. These don't have two distinct types of hairs and there was a negative iodine reaction (IKI) with the ascus pores. Also the spores are too wide.
Spores:
(11.7) 11.9 - 14.3 (15.4) × (2.4) 2.6 - 3.1 (3.4) µm
Q = (3.8) 4.5 - 4.8 (5.4) ; N = 10
Me = 13.1 × 2.9 µm ; Qe = 4.6
Could this still maybe be something close to that?

Re : White, dark-haired on Pinus
Yes, and all hairs are smooth, unlike Venturiocistella.
An undescribed genus and species that I know for long, with an article almost finished. At the moment the folder is called Laevipila (Hyaloscyphaceae).
Coincidentally, I got today another report of that species.
Also here I would like to note the collection data.

Re : White, dark-haired on Pinus
Thank you, that's quite interesting! I checked the folder and this certainly seems to fit. I'll mail you the data a bit later.
