This test is quite interesting, mainly because I have a shoot coming up mixing RED Dragon with F55 and it's clear that with some grading effort they will match quite well. Helium however has some strange stuff going on, glad the shoot is not Helium and F55.

This is before the ipp2 Color processing "revolution" on Red Cameras. Current results are much different. Specially for Helium.
 
THE F55 is a great cam. Different league from the F5. You should have no problem with both Dragon and Helium matching. A good color grader does it quickly. But make sure to Black Shade that Dragon at shooting temperature, frame rate and shutter speed! (average will do!).
