I think they are supposed to be slayers, they look like them make the same insectile sounds and they are a what more a fitting creature to meet you doom at in bhaal's hellish pocket plane than his own avatar

No, they could not be Pit Fiends because Pit Fiends are around 25 feet tall. The ones in the cutscene were the same size as Irenicus.

For Internet access, I go to the library (fast connection, no floppy-drive access) and my Mom's (the reverse). My good computer was much better than my current one.

As for the Sendai thing, a lot of names were recycled from BG1 into BG2; One theory I've heard for this is that while BG was being developed, there were message boards full of ideas for the project, and frequent contributors were rewarded by being allowed to design minor characters, frequently using the same names that the contributors used as screen-names. Khalid El Haitami (or whatever his name is), the guy who throws his might Scimitar at your head, is supposed to be one of these.
Names that I can think of offhand that show up twice:
Sendai: In BG1, an arrogant Amnish b----. In ToB, a whiny Drow b----.
Bodhi: In BG1, one of the (wrong) passwords into the Thieves Guild is "Bodi." In BG2, well, you know.
Hareishan: In BG1, a Mage working for Davaeorn. In BG2, a Vampire working for Bodhi.
Brennan Risling: In BG1, a citizen of BG city who likes to talk about ships. In BG2, a cowardly Thief.
Jon Irenicus: In BG1, a horridly obese woman named Centeol says she was cursed by "the archmage, Jon Icarus."
