I've never seen this version of the dust bug. is ti screwed or glued? Is it from Dual?
It is metal.

Add on stylus brush, most likely held on with double sided tape.

Easy to check if it's screwed. Lift the table out of the plinth and look. But I expect tape as well

Chances are it's glued on. Pivot supports for Dust Bugs and their variants that I've encountered were originally equipped with suction cups or magnets. These would inevitably get knocked out of position prompting users to glue those bases directly to the deck so they stayed put.

There were a number of old tables I've come across with the telltale ring of dried adhesive and/or missing paint where a Dust Bug (et al) base used to be.
