I read most of the story and maybe I missed it, but sellers like Snyder's license the products so they can use the Ford parts numbering system. Probably most all the items sold at many of the A and T suppliers are not made on ex Ford tooling as suggested in that story. While the standards should be equal or higher, not everything sold carries the Ford name or markings on them. An example of having Ford trade markings would be the head light lens.
