It used to be that the one without the alignment hole (same place as the pinion but on the other end) would be a Mk I, but with all the reproduction racks done over the years, that test doesn't work.
Just turn the rack from lock to lock. Around 2 1/4 turns would be Mk I. Just short of 2 3/4 turns is MK II+. Don't know what the pose pack racks are set for.
