awe crap!

From another thread*, I had come to understand that if the lifter carried the 951 part number, I was getting a good part - but Bruce's post suggests that if it's an "L-951" that it's Eaton crap... well I just looked up my order, and sure enough "L951";

Poop.

Is there any identifier on the packaging which would confirm the place of manufacture?

* = Here is my path of deciding;
THIS thread gave me THIS link, and then the following quote:

Most of these manufacturers just tack on a couple of letters or numbers to the HyLift part number and call it their own.
At least that's the way it looks to me.
I hope I don't have garbage sitting in boxes...
