Eurhinosaurus mistelgauensis is interesting because it is quite a bit younger than all other known Eurhinosaurus species. It gives us vital information of these ichthyosaurs close to the Middle Jurassic faunal turnover. Art: Andrey Atuchin, used with permission from Urwelt-Museum Oberfranken

Even though I think there is no extant fish with such a weird jaw, there is a placoderm just like this! Alienacanthus: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...
Extreme lower jaw elongation in a placoderm reflects high disparity and modularity in early vertebrate evolution | Royal Society Open Science
Jaws are a key vertebrate feature that arose early in our evolution. Placoderms are
among the first jawed vertebrates; their fossils yield essential knowledge about the
early diversification of gnatho...

It is an interesting thought; I do however wonder about potential genetic constraints on the archosaur (archelosaur even?) lineage in terms of potential reversal to viviparity as it is not confirmed in any archosauromorph lineage other than the tanysauria
