This is what I have been told: Lift one wheel only, leave the other on
the ground. If the lifted wheel does not rotate, it is for sure an LSD.
If it rotates with difficulty, it MAY be an LSD. If it rotates freely
it is NOT an LSD. Why did I not do try it instead of asking the
question? The car is at the mechanic's and I did not want to wait till
Monday to find out.

That workshop manual doesn't tell that for a PC7/PC8 differential. :-(
Some
newer differentials may have (had) an aluminium plate saying it's an LSD
and
needs special oil. Even if the plate is gone there still can be a
fastening
rivet left. Here is a pic of it (haven't never seen one myself):

I've been told that you can test if it's a LSD by rotating the main
shaft
and looking at the sides: if both sides rotates to the same direction
it's
an LSD. I don't know how accurate that method is because I heard that
even
with a non-LSD the behaviour is same??? Can someone tell a more accurate
method for testing or identifying it (without putting it to a car)?
BTW, here's the (almost) same differential workshop manual but in
French:
