Unfortunately the 'magnet' test won't work... due to most grades of stainless being non-magnetic.
I think you'd be surprised just how magnetic many 'stainless' products actually are.

No magnetic indication and the markings you initially had are probably further pointers towards aluminium....

  If it ain't Farkled...  don't fix it....
