Doesn't look familiar. Are there any casting marks on the inside?

Havnt taken it off yet. I was at the shop today looking for new rear light, and I wanna do the bag spacer lights as well and tried explaining to the shop guy what I had. I googled 1986 Electra glide taillight and that was one of the pics, exact same one I have

Looks like a Rick Doss part. I think the Gilroy Indians used his teardrop lights.
