Default Tell Tale signs of a CDB

Are there any ways of spotting a CDB without having it in bits, are there any markings on the case or anything?

Thanks

Cross hatch marks behind the alternator belts. There is a picture of it floating about somewhere.

It will have cross hatching on the block, just above the oil filter.
