Thanks Ronnie for posting a pic of the insert.
Inside the red triangle, in the border of the round hole, there are tinny cracks with the orange paint, which is impossible with an original insert.
This shows that the paint was added in a later stage.
In addition to that, there are tinny scratches all over the insert, EXCEPT on the red triangle...
More importantly, the font used for this red triangle insert is wrong.
Best case, the faded insert is original and the red triangle was added (difficult to tell just based on the pics).
Worst case, the whole insert is fake.
