Urgent! When submitting a recipe for a contest and using a pastry or crust recipe does that part have to be original or adapted as well?

So my hand pie dough recipe is from a cookbook, but the filling is mine. Is that acceptable for contests or no?

It's preferable, yes. If you use someone else's crust recipe, please say whose it is, and how you changed it.
