It is very easy to distinguish between the two types of pumps.
Referring to 2 / 1 / 0 fig 51 in the parts manual, the early type pump usesa
flat top banjo screw while the later external valve pump uses a domed banjo
nut.

Now that I think about it though, does anyone know the Bosch
part number of the fuel pumps with the defective check valve? I'd
like to check mine before reinstalling it. Actually, I may just
replace it. It doesn't seem to do anything but 'hum' when I giveit
12 volts of juice. Shouldn't I be able to feel a little suction on the
intake side? It has been sitting dry for 10 years. I suppose I
should soak it for a few days in fresh gasoline to see if it breaks
free. But if it's one of the ones with the bad check valve, I should
just order a new one and skip the frustration.
