Compressor oil

Curious, how would you know if your compressor has oil? When I got into an accident the condenser had to be replaced, but I left it empty of freon because it was cold back then. I had it recharged with freon (ok, R12) but I now think I didn't have the oil checked, so how do I know?

I rarely use my AC but I'd like to know I'm not killing the compressor by running it without oil...

Edit: car is 1983 300D

Also, receiver/dryer glass isn't as clear as it's supposed to be. Your thoughts?
