Caterpillar 0R-4893 is the electronic unit injector: the grey body with the plunger spring, the white solenoid cap with the terminal pins and the nozzle with its sealing rings. It is used on Caterpillar 3406E and C16 engines. This aftermarket version is made to the same mounting and connections as the original, so it fits where the old one came off.
The same part is also sold as Caterpillar 117-1148.
Sold as one unit. Check the number on your old part, or in the parts manual for your machine, before ordering.

Yes, it is a direct replacement for the Caterpillar 0R-4893 with the same fitting.
Often 5,000 to 10,000 hours, but much less on poor or wet fuel. Injectors are usually changed when they fail a test, not by hours.
Black or white smoke, a misfire or knock on one cylinder, hard starting, higher fuel use, or a high return leak or balance rate on test.
Not always. If the others pass a return leak or balance test, one can be changed. Where they are all high hours, a full set keeps the cylinders even.
Always. Fit a new copper washer and O-rings under every injector you remove. A reused washer leaks combustion gas and carbon packs the bore.
No. It is an aftermarket fuel injector made to replace the Caterpillar 0R-4893. It is not made by the original manufacturer; the number only shows what it replaces.
