Default Recognize this strut brace?

Strut brace was put on by the po. I've only had the car for 5 years and have wondered what brand strut brace this is. I can't see any brand ID on it anywhere that is visible without removing it. Thanks

I looks like an oem 964RS or some 993RS, there is also another version used on some RS/Cup cars w/ alloy uprights

The green fluid reservoir is the secondary reserve for the clutch/powersteering on turbo cars.

Its a turbo only part
