OEM BRAKE PADS? which one?

I used the "search" tab and did not have any result about which oem brake pads. Anyway, I am looking to replace my pads and called up "Auto Parts Warehouse" and similar companies i.e "PartsTrain' and got different answers. One said "PBR" and the other "AKEBONO" and even "Nissens"!! So which one is OEM? I understand that if I buy it at Acura dealer, I would get OEM but I want to save $$$ if I can find the same part for less $$$. Thanks in advance.

Why not call an Acura dealer if you want the brand of OEM pad?

But you can get better pads for less.

Thanks everyone, I ended up calling acuraoemparts.com. And bought my pads there.
As for calling the dealer, they told me acura makes their own parts
I heard "honeywell" honda "blue" oilfilter is made by Fram but then who makes honda/acura brake pads?
