Default Factory Original Parts? Fuel filter

I have been told that the following parts are factory originals on my 1969 Nova SS.
Can anyone tell me if they are or not?
TIA.

Definitely AC Delco. Whether it came from the factory, I would hope it's been changed in 45 years, but it is an AC Delco fuel filter.

The engine has been restored, so who knows, but I'd guess it's been replaced with an nos or repop.

yes engine was detailed, I just do not want to throw away an original part if it is original.
THANKS

Engine was detailed with the entire engine compartment and would agree with the look it would be highly unlikely to have been the original filter but just as Steve said, who knows. L34 Nova's had that filter, but not L78's.
