Russian Aviation Experts Required

So who knows what these bits are on top of this Tu160's wings are?

At first I thought they might be the movable wing fences, but they just don't look right for that.

Wing Fences circled below

Could they be engine inlets? Doubtful, why retain the original ones. Plus they seem too far aft for that.

Wonder what they are? The photo is not very clear and does not blow up too well.
