Also the stamp on the block could help. And if im not mistaken, heads have a certain stamp on the side of the head.

SOHC VTEC valve covers came in 94-95 Vtec SOHC Civics. 92-93 SOHC Vtecs had the H on it originally it. just had the H on it.

Well it's a D16Y7...
96+ engines all have the spark plug holes on the exhaust side and will fit VTEC and 96+ non VTEC valve covers. That doesn't make them VTEC.
