There will be a Honda parts sticker on the back, plus the molding die is 
marked up a certain way. You won't be able to see this without removing
the 
bumper from the car.

You can do one of two things:
1) ask the bodyshop to give you a copy of the invoice for the bumper
(price 
removed of course), or
2) ask to see the bumper when it comes in.

Anyway, I don't think you have anything to worry about. If you were told 
you were getting an OEM bumper, then you're getting one. The "buddy buddy"

thing is probably just because they deal with each other all the time on 
business.
