The Cross itself could be original but the eagle attachment and Oak leaves are almost certainly not.
There was a well-known dealer in th UK who got his hands on some original 25-Yr crosses made of tombak and had them "upgraded" to 40-Yrs. Someone supplied him with the fake eagles and oak leaves in the late 1990's and he regularly had an army 40-Yr cross on his list.
The only 40-Yr Oak leaves I believe in look like this.
