ali Khalifeh was the founding father of the kalifah oud shop.
his ouds where fantastic.
he is now dead for a long time now and his relatives are making ouds under his name today. They are not good quality ouds for the most part.
Ibrahim Sukar is a great oud maker. many professional players use his ouds.
so option #2 is really much better

I am not sure but I think in the 1970's and before is safe to assume it was Ali Khalifa.
anytime after that like late 1980's untill today, they where not made by him and the quality went down a lot
