APN manifold question.

Does the APN plastic manifold have any markings stating where it was made?

The only Dorman manifold I have looked at has “Made in Korea” cast in the plastic.
The “Made in Korea” mark is on the bottom side close to the throttle body and can’t be seen once the manifold is mounted.

Surely some one knows something about where the APN is made.
Maybe the APN is just a sleeved Dorman.

I think they are shipped out of CA, so maybe they are making them somewhere across the pond. Hard to imagine how they could buy a Dorman, sleeve it, sell it for $50 less, and still make a profit.
