What brand is our stock timing belt?

Long story short, i've had my TL for about 6 months now. Bought it with 108k. Now has 119k on it. Never new any service records of it or anything except that it had the clutch replaced. Just to be on the safe side to see if the timing belt had been replaced I took off the timing cover to check the belt if it had been replaced. The belt was a mitsuba belt, does anyone know if thats what they use for the stock belts, or if that is some sort of aftermarket belt?

I googled mitsuba and it doesn't appear to be an aftermarket belt, that or not a very popular one.. So just to sum it up, does anyone know? Not trying to go too long without a 105k service done. If it's the stock belt i'm almost 15k past due
