NZ ID Request: Phaeogyroporus portentosus!?!?!

Found under Hebe sp. on what I suspect is pine bark, with soil. I suspect Phaeogyroporus portentosus but could be Boletus leptospermi? There are Leptospermum nearby (30 meters).. =\
Gills: Light brown pores.
Stem: Thick, rigid, dark brown, not hollow. Slight red tone where it meets pores.
Cap: Dark brown, rigid, normal texture.
Spore print color: Print underway but I had to wash and dry the gills before printing and the tissue paper I used received light brown staining. Will upload print pic in an hour.
Bruising: I sliced the stem from the cap in order to print it and noticed bluey green staining... Only appearing within 1cm from the outside of stem. Could be colour leaking from skin? If it is indeed Phaeogyroporus portentosus then it apparently is edible. Could it contain psilocybin? I'm not adverse to tripping but I intend to eat this whopper and would'nt like any unexpected magical voyages.
Other information: No remarkable odour, found in an extremely public place so please excuse the crude grab/mycelium attachment. If it proves tasty I will attempt to cultivate or at least deposit some spores around the place.




It does remind me of Boletus leptospermi but their cap texture is normally soft/smooth/velvety whereas this one is rigid and plain.. ( ) Hmmmm If it is what I suspect has anyone had any experiences with this mushroom?

Yes, looks like a Boletus sp., maybe Porphyrellus?
Is the last picture of a different species?
