Need help identifying this bumper

I need ti ID this bumper. Is it a stock Ford item or an aftermarket. The right side license plate lamp housing broke off and is repairable and I need to get a new one installed to keep from getting a Fix-it ticket. The lamp in the first picture is what Ford and Rock Auto has listed but is different and does not fit. Any help would be greatly appreciated

"Need help identifying this bumper"

That is a rear bumper to a '98 Ford Ranger....
Okay, all jokes aside, you probably want a matching license plate light? If you want a matching light, the Ford part number should be on the light that you still have in your truck. I've run into the Dorman replacement light that you have shown. Dorman's catalog doesn't list it to fit the Ranger, but Dorman lists a light for an F100 for an F250 that will work. But what you want to do is to put a dab of RTV between the light and the bumper to somewhat glue it in place because it fits a little loose and you can easily lose it.

OK...evidently someone along the line put a Chevy bumper on my truck as I found this lamp and it is identical to the one on my bumper and it is for a Chevy C/K but I cannot find it in black. There is no numbers whatsoever on the other light!

That explains why I hadn't seen that bumper or light on a Ranger before.
Personal preference, but I like the Ford light better....
