Yep, that looks original I'd say. You're correct about the fuel cap; the original would have been plastic.

'Craftsman' was an MSAA [Mower Specialist Association of Australia] 'house brand' here for 40 years or so [in the US it's a Sears/Sears Roebuck mailorder brand]. All of the major local mower manufacturers made 'store brand' mowers for them AFAIK.

I'd tend towards giving it a full service [cowlings off and clean out the cooling fins; empty and clean fuel tank and carby bowl; air filter and oil change; blades, bolts and spark plug replacement] before selling it on. A little time, but not much in parts, and much less chance of a comeback.
