As much as I love theories, I'm sorry to say that this one just plain doesn't work.

The main enemy in Recovery One was the Meta. This was confirmed years ago by not only Season 6 but RoosterTeeth themselves.

On your point about them lookiong diffrent. Halo 2 which is what they used to film Recovery One has no armour customization. When Halo 3 released, which is what Seasons 6-8 and half of 10 are filmed in, it came with the ability to customize your player character. RoosterTeeth then decided they wanted to make the Meta more recognisable so they changed his look.

About the healing unit. We don't actually know the extent of what it can heal. York is shot through the left side of his chest. The three bullets most likely hitting his lung and around his heart. That's pretty fatal. Wash on the other hand as an example, was shot it the back by South. I've watched Recover One multiple times and it always looks like Wash was shot in his shoulder. That's a less fatal area to be shot.

But the most convincing evidence for this is Delta. He tells Tex that York will not survive. Why would Delta lie? He wouldn't. He has no reason to. Why would Delta have a reason to lie to tex about Yorks health. He wouldn't.
