Wheal Busy Siding Box?

Hello Keith, While I was away I purchased from a well known internet auction site the small brass? signal lever sign which you can see in the attached photos. It measures about four and a half inches by one and a half inches and as you can see from the second photo a previous owner has painted on the rear "Wheal Busy Siding S/Box". The seller was quite honest in his description and had done some research but could not confirm that it actually came from Wheal Busy. I wonder if your experts on signalling are able to determine it's authenticity or otherwise? Kind Regards Alan.
I, KJ, have my doubts, can anybody help? Look at our website for Wheal Busy Box lever allocations.
