Is this an OEM or aftermarket brake booster (2nd Gen)?

I ordered this 2nd Gen booster from a junkyard website, supposedly OEM with 130K on it. I plan to use it as an upgrade for my 1st Gen 4Runner. Judging by the label I think it is OEM, but it'd be great to get a confirmation. Was that "Bendix License Master Vac" the original part?

JKC is a Japanese company licensed to manufacture boosters designed by Bendix. My guess is it’s legit oem. Anyone looking to make an aftermarket part to undersell oem isn’t going to go to Japan. They end up in China
