You can massage the data a bit by changing all of the "(" and ")" and "." to a ":" before you parse the data. Once you have that then all of your data looks the same. Set FS = ":" to define your fields, set OFS to some output delimiter you need and print your data. If you need the parens in the output, add them back in your print statement. Remember, Awk does not change the original record so you can make these changes for the purposes of your program without mucking anything up!
