Default Is My "Genuine Toyota" Air Filter A Genuine Toyota Part?

I ordered a Genuine Toyota air filter off amazon for my 2001 Camry LE 4 cylinder. The part number online said it was 17801-03010.
The box container says "Genuine Toyota Parts" and the air filter says Toyota with the same part number.
However, it also says "DENSO Made in USA" on the filter.

Is this an authentic Toyota part?

Thanks in advance for any comments.

Toyota owns a major share in Denso which makes parts for Toyota.

Does it look like the part below:

Yes, it looks exactly like the one in your link. Here's the one I ordered:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004C69LPS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004C69LPS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

I'm assuming then that it is an authentic Toyota filter. Thanks for responding!

Should be OK.

Again Denso makes many parts for Toyota car production. The box could state Toyota and the actually part state Denso.

Yeah Denso is an OE manufacturer. Part should be genuine.

Toyota also does NOT make it's own anti freeze and oil.
