I've been reading descriptions of the Commando clutch and I'm not sure if what I have is oem or something else.

This is a friction disc and the pressure plate but all the steel plates look exactly like the finish on the pressure plate.

It would be more likely that your 850 had the 'five bronze friction plate' clutch originally, I think? http://www.oldbritts.com/ob_clutch_info.html

Isn't that a Barnett friction disk?

The 850 used 5 sintered bronze plates .125 inch thick with a thin pressure plate. The 750 had 4 fiber plates about .145 thick and a thicker pressure plate. If you have 5 of those in your 850 they're aftermarket.
