How to identify turbo brands on OM617

My nephew has a beautiful 84 300d with OM617.95X engine.


The turbo's wastegate actuator appears to have a hole in the diaphragm.


How do I tell which turbo it is? I know there are two brands.


The local dealer is clueless, but he "thinks" that the new wastegate actuator is about 700.00.


How about that! Doesn't know the brand but knows the price of the replacement part!


My issue is getting the replacement part for the right brand.


Thanks!
