On a factory Honda 1998 B18B throttle body, does it have the letters "HAD" on it?

Sounds like a weird question I know, but I've never seen "HAD" on a Honda TB and was wondering if it was stock and if so what it stood for.

 

pic?

 

My camera sucks for macro and low-light... but here:

 

Don't know about other honda tb's but my h22 throttle body says had on it as well...maybe its an h22 one? Does it have a plastic piece on the throttle itself, just on top of the metal part?

I'm not sure what you mean by a plastic piece on the throttle itself...

Which part of the TB do you mean?

 

im pretty sure its the oem TB. i thought it might have been aftermarket on my friends teg. but aparently they are oem. im pretty sure they are anyways.

 

that is definately oem

Hmmm ok. Holding out to see if more people can confirm this. I know it's such a piddly thing, but having acquired a car with a swap already done, I'm learning all of this new stuff about B18's. Every little detail of stuff I like to know. I see letters stamped on something and I don't recognize them from my work at the dealership and it makes me curious.. heh.

Guess it's my quirk or something.

 

just grabbed my old b18 b throttle body... it doesnt say had. hmmm....

Crap.

So what's the consensus? OEM or not?

Anybody else that can take a quick peek on their B18B for me? Puuuuuuleeeeeeze?
