i dont really know how you'd find out

maybe u would be able to tell by the rev limiter????? the vtr is set at about 6300-500 rpm and surely the 1.4 would be set a bit lower!?

put a magnet on teh block, if its sticks its a 1.6.

There are other little clues but would need pictures of the whole engine
