The photos are not close enough to tell.

Your 'nice pool of solder' comment doesnt bode well though, any fixings should be brazed on and definately not soldered.

If its genuine and it very well may be, its had a lot of messing around at the rear with the solder and the chopped fittings and the strange non standard loop remaining.

best wishes
