Easy:
Lucas: Cold start cable to front of pump
Bosch: Cold start cable to back of pump
If it's a 1.9 TD it will almost certainly have a Bosch pump (not heard of any Lucas ones). 1.9D might be either I guess. A Bosch TD pump is also easily recognisable by the flying saucer on the top. N/A pumps look similar, but check the cold start cable as above.
