Need some help with a paypal dispute, HKS wastgate

Recently bought a brand new HKS wastgate from ebay, after asking the seller if it was genuine, he replied saying it was so I bought it.

When I recieved the wastegate it looks very much to me like a copy there is no HKS logos on the wastegate, the seller insists they come like this but I know the ones I have seen and the one on my car are all stamped up with the logo.

 

the pics below are of the wastgate I have recieved, paypal have sent me the following

 

"We suggest that you obtain written proof from an unbiased third-party, such

as a dealer, appraiser, or organisation qualified in the area of the item

in question (other than yourself), which clearly identifies the item as not

authentic. It should be clear from the document how the item you received

differs from an authentic one. It should also give a detailed explanation

of how the person evaluating the item determined that its not authentic"

Get an authorised trader to state the difference between that and a HKS original wastegate and then Paypal will have to give you your money back, as it would have come from a verified source...
