Smile how can I tell if it is s4 turbo or s5

my friend got this turbo, not quite sure if that is s4 or s5 since there is no known one to compare. done some rearch, didn't see an obvious answer. the mark near the DP manifold is "PD289". the mark near the exhaust manifold is "899-1"

thanks

S4 wastegate actuator rods are straight. S5 isn't.
