There are numerous citations, particularly since his death in October 2021, that bass player Deon Estus played with Frank Zappa:
He did not play with Frank Zappa - such are the dangers of copying and pasting.
In an interview with Steve Cooper Cooper Talk Episode 337:
Steve Cooper: What was it like playing with Zappa?
Deon Estus: I played with Zappa's band, Carlos Rios, Vinnie Colaiuta, I didn't do any touring with Zappa... I didn't go out on the road with him or record any stuff with him.
So Estus played a few sessions with Colaiuta, presumably after he left Zappa in 1981, prior to playing with Wham! in 1983.
