Internally there all the same with minor changes an s15 ecu is required to run s15 injectors so I would say it's an s15 motor I highly doubt someone would change loom and injectors as it's a waste of time if anybody is going to change those bits it's better off going aftermarket from the begining

the holes in the cam cover for the coil packs are smaller on the S15 (S14 coils won't fit in an S15 cover) and the S15's standard exhaust manifold doesn't have the protrusion for the EGR connection.
If you were to open it up, the S15 pistons are different - they have an extra oil channel in the crown for cooling.
