Default CEL and TRAC OFF lights with codes P1153 and P0420

1999 es300. Have had it a few months. CEL and TO Lights came on and off intermittently- then stayed on for 3 weeks. On the advice of an amateur 4es owner - i replaced both oil control valves aka vvt solenoids amd cleaned the small filters below them. Reconnected battery. Lights have been off for 120 miles and counting.

Are they genuine Lexus parts?
