OEM Push Guards?

Can someone validate that GEM Manufacturing Corp is a Ford OEM manufacturer?

Just curious because I bought a set of bumper push-guards listed at NOS / OEM parts when they came in, no OEM box, no Ford part numbers but a sheet of paper saying they were made by GEM Manufacturing Corp out of Addison Illinois.

They seem to be solid parts but I am feeling like I paid NOS prices for reproduction parts.

Lower pic: These are bumper guards with vinyl pads, not called "push" bumper guards:

EOTZ-17984-A .. Bumper Guard w/Pad / Right/Left is the same / Obsolete ~ 1 available NOS

1980/86 F100/350 & Bronco.
----------
The vinyl pads were also available by themselves, these are the same as 1978/79 F100/350 & Bronco // 1987/91 F150/350 & Bronco.

D8TZ-17A812-A .. Bumper Guard Vinyl Pad / Right/Left is the same / Obsolete ~ 395 available NOS

1978 F100/350 from serial number AG0001 // 1978/91 Bronco // 1979/91 F100/350.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice the 'brush' guard shown in the upper Econoline pic. A similar brush guard was available for F100/350 & Bronco, but there's no pic of it.

EOTZ-17996-A .. Brush Guard / Obsolete ~ same applications as bumper guards.
