Backhoe OEM Yanmar backhoe (~1980)

[California]

I just found an ebay auction for a YM240 like mine. His tractor includes a backhoe that is likely OEM Yanmar.

This is interesting - I recently bought the same model backhoe but the one I got is tagged as OEM Kubota!

Here are some pictures of mine.

I emailed the seller on that ebay Yanmar auction and he said my photos match his BH.

I have posted about my Kubota K650 backhoe in the Kubota forum if anyone wants more details.

Apparently this model backhoe was made in the US (all USS bolts) and sold as OEM by multiple brands.
Does anyone know more about this model? Was it sold as a Yanmar option?

The Yanmar attachments were made in the US or Canada, so they may have been labelled for other companies , too.
