OEM tensioner?

[azgolfrat]

Hey Guys,
I bought my 03 in 2019. Not sure how many owners it has had.
I am wondering if the tensioner that was on it was original.
There are no brand name markings on it.
There is "made in canada" visible.
Any idea if this is the one that came with the car? Or if it a Ford part?

Eddie,
Possible it's BT-68, not PT-68?

For those of you that have the tensioner rotation /belt removal tool from ADTR, better get the BT-68. The tool doesn't work on AC Delco , and maybe other tensioners that fit and work otherwise.
