Have you tried putting the car reg into the parts finder on the Euro Car Parts.com website? It may give you the right part number. As for telling the difference between the two systems, sorry I don't know.

ending up seeing TRW on one of the wheel cylinder gaiters so that looks to correspond with Lucas braking system
