Default Factory tow hitch question

My 08 KR has the factory tow package. I've read it's a class IV hitch. What I wanted to see is who is the manufacturer of the hitch? Does Ford actually have a branded hitch?

Idk about branded, but mine came with a Reese.

After looking at my 05 with factory towing, I would have to think Ford made it in-house. It has some very vehicle specific looking mounts and also provides a majority of the rear bumper support.

This is what I'm also thinking. I haven't seen any labeling at all on it and it doesn't have the exact dimensions that an aftermarket one has...
