Default Cobra Intake Mani

Hey guys, i have a friend that knows someone that supposed to have an orignal Cobra Intake manifold off of a 93 cobra. I was wondering if their is anything i can look for to make sure that it isn't an aftermarket cobra intake mani, and that it is original. He said he would sell it for 300 bucks which i believe is a decent price but still would be nice to know if it is an authentic Original.

Look between the cobra plate and the TB opening, if there is a Ford Racing badge in that area, its the aftermarket. It will be right on top, you cant miss it.

Just look for the Ford part number cast on the intake. Any particular reason you would use that intake? Cobra Clone?

Na not a cobra clone, just somewhat of a budget build. Don't really have 500-700 bucks for an aftermarket one, and i figured the cobra one has got to flow better than a stock intake mani.
