What is my sealed bottom bracket? NOT shimano

This is a "sentimental" bike restoration of a bike that was custom built for my good friend, Doug's, father. This bike was custom built in the late 70's. It has all the state of the art components of the time. I finally got the cranks off with a TA puller I ordered.

Lots of Campy components
TA Cranks

It does have a sealed bottom bracket, and it probably not original. When I tried the Shimano BB tool, it doesn't line up, though it looks very much like it would. I checked carefully.
It is not Campy.
What other style of sealed bottom bracket could it be? And yes,this bike is beat up, it is a labor of love for a very dear friend.
Photo is of drive side, same on other side.

Sealed bottom braket. ISO square taper for TA crank
