Default Oem??

I am currently converting my 93 bird to a 98-up front end. I have my ram air hood for sale and the guy wants to know if it is OEM or not. How do I tell the difference? Help would be appreciated!! Thanks

if there are no cutouts it's not oem. also if its fiberglass it's not oem as the oem hoods are made from SMC.
