The one I just installed is similar but not quite the same, with different cutouts machined into the side. I don't think it matters. The critical issues are the thread size at the base and the safety release pressure. Yours is marked 3/8, which should be the correct size. I can't see from the markings what the pressure rating is, but I understand it to be 1.6bar. Should be marked.
I believe that the threads are a straight, not tapered fit, where sealing relies on the a gasket at the bottom of the receiving female thread. I did use an NSF thread sealant on it just in case. You could use teflon tape if you wished.
