got this out of a 75 blazer for my 73 not sure if this was original or aftermarket
I’m guessing it is all for the back section but was uninstalled when I picked it up and guy couldn’t remember

Looks aftermarket, all the factory rear bar mounting I've seen has mounted one to floor, one to wheel tub.

Please don't call that a "roll" cage. Being bolt together it wont have enough strength to provide rollover protection. It's what we prefer to call a light bar, used for holding up lights or a bikini top.

The silver bar with the bracket coming off of it looks stock to me. My 75 had one just like it. The diagonal bars didn't reach to the wheel tub, just to the floor in front of it. Mine even had the round rubber ring around the front tube as a trim ring around the carpet. I'm not sure where the rest of the tubes came from.
 
If it wasn't stock it was very popular in the aftermarket, cause my 73 had one identical
