While I can't say for certain, mine appears to be
the original 3B as it has the same level of grime
as the block.  This is on a 3B installed by
2Bennett (aka S2Bennett).  I had visually inspected
all the sensors and compared it to the parts
list on their invoice.  The only sensor they replaced
was the MFTS.
Now if they tricked the Autocheck by jumpering some
connector, I don't know....
