ARG0001w4z, two separate emissions, or one-sided triple or double?

Here's ARG0001w4z, which appears to be possibly two separate lobes, or a related single emission. The contour overlays below are centred on SDSS J131745.65+271302.4, which is east of the ARG co-ordinates listed left.
The contour overlay image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk
thread. VLASS contours in yellow, Wise Band 1 lime green.The centre lobe is positioned on SDSS J131745.65+271302.4, which is a #disk galaxy and has a z_sp=0.038 +/-0.00001. This object has recorded First flux emission, a radio reference in NED, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J131745.65+271301.8.
To the west is a #diffuse lobe, which at its core, appears to be a faint object. However, this object is not listed as a photometric object in SDSS, although there is a diffuse ir lobe at the same location. Whether this is the host of the emission is hard to determine. There is no ALLWISE reference at this location.
As per the ARG comments left, and this being a possible #triple, this is hard to ascertain. Possibly two separate emissions. Furthermore, the First Wise Band 1 contour overlay below shows a further #diffuse one contour lobe slightly west of SDSS J131745.65+271302.4. This could possibly be an #artifact as it doesn't appear apparent in VLASS.

I think there's no doubt that SDSS J131745.65+271302.4's nucleus is host of radio emission. However, whether it's also host of the two (other) #compact sources is, I think, impossible to say with any certainty, based on the analysis (and data) you've presented.
