Different hubs

While taking apart my 88 951 to do wheel bearings I noticed I have different hubs. One is a factory cast aluminum unit. The other may or may not be stock. It is made from a single block of machined aluminum. It is a really nice hub. Is it stock Porsche? I would like get another machined one but I have no idea where to begin. It looks really expensive too. Any thoughts?

My friends company makes also them. Don't know if Racers Edge hubs have a possibility tu use ABS system which my friends company's hub have.
These hubs accept oem bearings. Made from best quality aircraft aluminum and then hard anoidzed for extra strenght.

Thanks. I have the Racer Edge one, or an exact copy. For $400 I don't think I'll buy the match just yet, not unless I see something suspect when I clean up the stock hub. What company is that OS951? Do they have a website? I like those too. The hardcoat will not add any structural strenght but will add corrosion resistance however.
