The formation of C12* is completely different but then they must be
the same.
The isomer energy may differ but must be enough to split the
nucleus.
In the hot fusion case there becomes a small part C12* how
fails to get enough energy
and instead emits weak gamma with a
half-life about 15 min.

The reaction is known in
hot p/B fusion.
p+B11=C12*
C12*=He4+Be8
Be8=2He4
Its another way
to form C*.

and it explains cold fusion not as fusion of deuterons but as fusion of
Li-6 in the electrolyte.
Side note. There is a semantic issue here
since the end product - the helium nucleus is of lower mass than the
reactant, Li-6 so this cannot be fusion.
Technically LENR could be
cold fission, instead of cold fusion. J
BTW - in case you were
wondering, there is such a known phenomenon - called "cold fission" but
it involves very heavy nuclei. This would be an entirely different
version of it, if it were real.
To be more exact, however, what we are
surmising is cold-fusion-fission - where lithium goes to carbon and then
back to helium.
