Any tell tale signs to indicate an original disc brake from a remade?

The originals have a casting of a 'C' in a circle on both backplate and hub, inside that is.

If it has grease nipples and large holes either side of the operating mechanism, it should be original as I don't thing the remade ones do.

Mid production has smaller holes and a grease nipple, this is the one I think is most reproduced. Late production has smaller holes and no grease nipple, then your looking for casting marks.

Sure scootRS ones are marked as such again inside though.
