Default 2009 RX350 OEM brake pad composition

i have a 2009 lexus rx350 fwd that needs some new pads on the front end. anyone know the pad composition of the oem pads - ceramic or semi-metallic?

there seems to be no consensus amongst dealers, auto supply stores, and online stores. some say oem is ceramic while others say it's semi-metallic. anyone know for sure?
