Yes there is

Ask him how many big pipes pass next to the airbox.

Two of them and it's a 110...

They'll just say yes as they look almost identical. I would say ask for the VIN but I can understand people being wary of that so explain that the 6th, 7th and 8th digits represent the engine code and ask them for those digits only. As you know, its stencilled under the bonnet on the wing or its on the V5.

I have this one of a 110 bhp, earlier HDi's won't have the front engine cover, the additional pipe is between the main engine cover and air filter.

The metallic blue bit on the clutch pipe is probably as good an indication as anything.

Mind, someone with a HDi 110 who see's this picture may not realise
the covers are their model if they've gone awol! The blue clutch feed
pipe is a good call!

i'm going to circle the second pipe and have arrows pointing to it, just to be sure

the clutch pipe might need to be a second option
