Exactly the same as I bought when mine bust on me.... lasted less than a week BUT it got replaced almost straightaway as soon as I sent them pics and a video.... they blamed a fault on my engine for the reason as to why it burst... strange how the replacement they sent lasted a hell of a lot longer than the first and I did nowt to the engine....

A lot of the stuff you see on ebay/amazon is more than likely sourced from China/Far East. Just saying you might nor be buying a quality part, you'd obviously need to try it first. Check how many omega/vx parts there are here.
