It is a genuine Toyota HOWEVER, It is gray market. What is gray market? It’s basically genuine Toyota parts but marketed for regions outside of home markets in this case USA. That part# is no longer used for many years, they superseded to 13540-0D020 years ago. Grey market parts are not supported in the US by Toyota corporate so if any dealer is caught selling gray market parts, they will risk losing their dealer franchise license over it as it’s a breach of the agreement. Now the question is would I use this in my personal car? Well if that’s the only thing that’s available and the original part at the dealers is discontinued I guess I would. But in this case many times when a gray market seller sells you the old part number versus the new one you may be missing out on a new and improved updated design.

Toyota Auris 2009
Cost me 5 grand with <100k mileage. Timing chain instead of timing belt, not much maintenance needed. One time I ran off the road onto gravel and rocks doing a 100, the car went back onto the road immediately with no problems. Went to the mechanic, he said it's just cosmetic damage.
Has timing chain that will last 200,000 miles.
