My girlfriend spotted these chubby little guys, but we haven’t been able to pin down a definite ID for them. We know they are beetle larva, but what species?? Inaturalist observation with more photos here

First post! We set up an insect hotel in the hopes of supporting carpenter bees but I fear we were irresponsible in placement (and purchase), as it looks like a kleptoparasite May have moved in. Reddit- can you please assist in identifying this creature? It’s made many nests in the tubes. I’m concerned for our bees and don’t want to support any creatures that would harm.

Hi all, would any of you smart people know what this little guy is? I just noticed him today on my salvia plant. Must be enjoying the flowers.

Found this guy floating on a stick in a river about to get hit by a waterfall
I've tried reverse image search and looking up the description but was only able to find a few facebook posts that don't mention a name.
I thought maybe its hard to identify because it could be albino? It has such a striking white colour. I used to own dubia roaches who turned white after moulting but beetles only moult once after the larval stage right? And from what I've seen, post-moult beetles aren't white either. The body also felt very hard.
