The image attached to the post is of an OR's badge as stated in the first sentence. It is an original cap badge.
The rest of the post describes officer's cap badges with similar flaws.

In my opinion it is a British wing pattern worn from the 60's on. The black backing cloth is missing revealing the inner padding.
It may also have been worn by the NZ SAS but not the Australian SAS....
