Unless the Chinese knockoffs have SEM Sweden stickers on them, I don't think these are fakes. I will say that the first one I bought came in a Saab box, while the latest was in a generic shipping box. they look identical, though. My understanding was that the Chinese ones lacked the SEM sticker (or at least had obvious signs of quality issues or rebuild indicators). You can order one in an inspect it, though -- no requirement to buy if you don't like what you see (not at my local store, anyway). FWIW, mine also has SAAB cast into the metal, and also on the plastic plug.
