Suntour Zeron Coil Fork. Has the steerer been replaced?

I bought this suntour zeron 35 coil fork off ebay for cheap late last year and it seemed in good condition so put it aside. Was going to put them on a bike today and on further inspection I'm unsure as to whether or not the steerer tube has been replaced. It appears new but there's a bunch of paint chips on lower legs. I like working on bikes as a hobby and am still learning so didn't really clock this as a potential issue until now.

Anybody got any ideas? Any way to check if the steerer tube is original? There is a serial code on the steerer tube but it doesn't match the code on the crown. I've asked the seller on ebay and am waiting to see if they'll reply.
