SS Totenkopf Panzer Soldbuch Signature

#1

I have a soldbuch to a member of SS-Pz Rgt 3 and I was wondering if anyone can identify this signature please.

The unit is 7./SS-Pz Rgt 3 and the barely legible stamp has the first two numbers for a FpNr of 48xxx which fits with 7 Kompanie (FpNr 48912) for the date seen. There is also a chance that some letters may be covered by the tape.
I have looked through the Company Commander listings for the whole regiment in Totenkopf by Charles Trang but can't seem to find a name that matches. There is another entry in the Soldbuch dated for April 1943 (i.e. 4 months before this one) and signed by future RKT SS-Obersturmführer Walter Mattern.

I also think it can be 'Schneider'.This man was a Hscha.(deputy of the Co.) when he signed it , that's why he isn't in the (Officers)list , unless he was later promoted to Officer .
There was an Ostuf. Walter Schneider and an Ostuf. Wolf Schneider in the SS-PzRgt.3
