Some of his drops on Allakhazam are not, no. Most people know that a 46/42 2hs with a graphic not added until PoP(?) didn't launch with kunark.
The quest dialogue for the 7th shawl is a pretty unambiguous lead in to the 8th shawl.
Not that the burden of proof is on me, but the evidence against the shawl being in with Velious is pretty damning.
You have 6 or so items from the quest having a required level.
You have the item having its own focus effect (although, they might have upgraded the shawl in a patch)
The kicker is that the 8th shawl npc who doesn't need to be spawned was not seen until 2002 in a frequented zone in Iceclad. Even if you argue that no one decided to turn in their 7th shawl and either Velious introduced the required level mechanic or that those items were added retroactively, you still have General Bragmar MIA.
