How can i tell if the head is a Y8?

I just bought a head off a guy who wasn't 100 percent sure what engine the head was off of. He's pretty sure it was off a y8 but is there anyway to tell for sure if its a y8 ? I know you can check the block but in this case it wasnt an option. Any help would be appreciated i can put up pics of it later. Thanks guys.
