I'd like to confirm an alternative to 7468M. After 5 generations it merges into the same pattern as the 5th generation of 7468M, but starts of considerably different.
It properties are the same as 7468M:
Bounding Box: 6x4
Initial Population: 8
Generations: 7468

Pattern ID: 00060004432407 (based on my tool at http://www.co.nz/gameoflife)
Or, here's the pattern drawn:
