The only markings on the PCB are "BD/HDP" and rev.

Awe, geez I feel like a putz It is a PS3 Blu-Ray pickup - assuming
that is the one I sent you ? I seem to recall in my, "hooray, he
fixed my Argon" euphoria some question from you - and I don't think
(obviously, now ) that I answered you. Sorry, Sam ! Let me know
if you need pinout info, current, etc !

It's not the same as the one you sent. The one you sent IS a PS2
pickup like the one at the top of this page:

The unknown pickup is the one further down the page.

It may indeed be compatible or a replacement, but it's not the usual
one that I'm familiar with.

Thanks!
