OEM part is bosch or hitachi, Intermotor is an aftermarket manufacturer.

Do you have a fault with that part or just wanted to know what it is.

just wanted to know what it was got the car sunday and the part just stood out a little bit and found 1 like it in the boot

My guess is the one in the boot is damaged, and they replaced it with that. From what I understand it's a comon fault for them to fail. I would also get yourself a spare coilpack and keep that in the boot along with an allen key so you can swap it out when one fails.
