It could be from either one. As the plug shown is above the crown sheet, it is a washout plug, which all the 490's have (along with just about every other engine). Looking at the full view earlier in the thread, I don't see any arch tube plugs, which would have been lower on the back head than the washout plugs. 490's have 4 ach tubes (I think), so you'd think one of the plugs would show up in the pic.

Therefore, it might be in the cab of 491.

Someone ought to go replicate the photo with an anti-phraud-o-graph of 491 and compare the 2.
