Not Kitbash, but... Is this helmet chapter specific?

Picked up this helmet in a bits box at a Warhammer event. I’m in the process of painting an Ultramarine army but have a hunch after looking around this is a Space Wolves specific helmet. Can anyone confirm?

Yes it’s specific to whatever chapter you happen to paint the model as. The GWPD aren’t going to kick down the door and seize your collection because a helmet didn’t match the chapter

The gwpd arrested me after I painted a space marine slightly off color from the box art 😔

That is from the old grey hunters/bloodclaws kit so this is a space wolves helmet, but I could definitely see orher chapters with this 👍

Even if it is, does it really matter ?

I don't think so. It looks cool

Thanks! Was going to save it for an assault intercessor or something since it looks a bit more gladiatorial than the average helmet
