look at the block under the Alternator / Power Steering pump A CDB will have cross hatchings.
You could also have a Semi CDB, not sure if their is a way to tell a Semi CDB from a ODB visually without head removal.

The only true way to tell a closed deck block is to look for hash markings behind the oil modine,dont rely on markings behind the ps pump or crank sensor its not a guaranteed sign.
