LSD's are rare... they were never fitted to retail Omega's (in the UK anyway)

Only Omegas in the UK to have an LSD are ex-plod, even then some do, some don't

They as rare as rocking horse poo poo....

I doubt if the engraved ident will be readable, it should be under a label stuck to a flat area 1" x 3/4" on the bottom of the main diff case.
If you remove the back cover and see normal planet gears then its a conventional diff. if the gears are completely enclosed then its a limited slip.

Not quite true, they were an optional extra.
