Call local Toyota dealership, and engine and cabin filter cost $45 each. Generic ones at amazon with decent review is about $12 each. As for OEM, not sure if it's "real" OEM is about $12. Any major benefit on using genuine Toyota filters vs generic? (for engine or cabin)
I have used Amazon generic engine/cabin filters since new with only one small issue. The engine air filter is an exact fit, but the cabin filter, Ecogard XC10622, comes in a rigid frame that doesn't fit inside the white plastic Toyota frame. But, it fits perfectly in the slot all by itself, so I keep the original Toyota plastic frame in the storage area under the trunk floor for safe keeping.

The Toyota engine filter is made in Japan, same Toyota part as the car came with new.
I ordered one of these awhile back, still the same price $7.17 on Amaz. Then I bought the Toyota brand to get free shipping on something else. It seems like a good quality filter made by an established reputable USA company. Luber-finer AF5216
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. As far as I know it's the same as "Genuine Toyota". In October 2020, from local dealership near me, for our 2010: Engine Air Filter: $27.95 CDN ($20.75 USD) Cabin Air Filter: $39.95 CDN ($29.66 USD) Maybe phone around. I’d second the comment above: the engine filter is the important one and surprisingly cheaper. Cabin air intake filter not so much.
IMHO; There's hardly any differences in OEM vs generic air filters. You just need to make sure they are the correct filter and seal properly, especially the engine filter. I spend a little bit more on the charcoal cabin filters and replace them every other oil change @ $12 a pair.

I wouldn’t buy generic filters for the engine. Sometimes they will say OEM quality or OEM specs, word trickery. At a minimum a name brand product that actually has the money and facilities to say OEM quality or equivalent and it means something, possibly.
