Yes, I have owned one before and inspected it for these exact distinguinshing factors and I agree with the above statement.
Also, at the time I bough mine about 4 years ago they had a little tag on the bottom lower side of the block that said "SCHWARTZ ENGINEERING." Not sure if that is still the case but at the time for me it these were the 2 physical factors that visually stood out and identified the C5R block!
