And the original Alien (Suit?) Just for the hell of it.

Not the suit here. This is the original sculpt-bust Giger did in Zürich before he went to Pinewood. I´m not sure, but I once read somewhere, that it is still in his studio. Would make it the holy Grail to me
About the rod puppet, Valaquen already pointed out all major differences. It is funny, that the puppet ADI did, would never have functioned, especially it never could have walked on four legs. Boss had to add several spine segments at the abdomen part, that while running the knees would not crash into the shoulders and forearms.
After all, the whole design of the runner is quite tricky, cos combining a quadro- and bipedal functionality (amd not looking like an Orangutan) is almost impossible.
