It's not, the one sold by blb is also Athena. You can tell by the finishing quality and form factor.
The At-005 seal sold by Mercian will fit your Athena headset.

so the one on my bike is record or athena? how can you tell the difference?

It's Athena.

how can you tell the difference?

Had both of them to compare. :)
Record is finished to a higher standard (high polish) than Athena, which is rougher and anodized.
The details are also different.
You can look up old catalogues or Boxed NOS headsets for comparison.
