I bought it right from a Merc dealer Ronnie. I don't spec where Merc gets their parts made.

Ronnie, your comment made me curious. Do you doubt my statement about this being a genuine OEM Merc part? Just to be sure, did a little research and it seems from what I found, many genuine Mercury Marine parts including their controls have been made in Korea for quite a few years now.
I know you're not interested in buying this item, but thanks for your "concern". This part is in fact OEM Mercury.
