I picked up an extra PF61E since I have two vehicles that use them. Plus, I wanted to help commemorate the price going up a dime after being the same for a few years. The new box design as seen on the right makes the extra money worth it. I think roughly translated, the foreign writing on the old box on the left says "Made in the USA!" while the new box has "Still made in the USA, baby!" written on it.
 
The box on the right says Genuine GM OE. As fas as I know “Professional” is one notch down from OE. Guess it’s time for a C&P.

On most of their parts, you're correct, Professional is not OE, but for their filters and spark plugs, ACDelco Professional is GM OE parts (at least for GM cars, that is)
 
They changed the packaging in response to counterfeiters.
I would like to see them "seal" the packages though.
