Tamiya never made a snow plow for the Clod so there is no such thing as an original Tamyia plow. The most common aftermarket plow for the Clod was done by ESP Mfg. and it uses a PVC blade. The plow you show looks similar to the ESP but with a metal blade. Most likely a home built unit.

I forget who made the aluminum plow. Somebody did though. My LHS still has one in the original bag. I'll check who the manfuacturer is and get back.

This one had packaging when it came with the clod when I bought it years ago. Def not home made.

I believe that is the ESP unit, although it looks like it is missing a few parts:
