Identify my subframe?

Identify my subframe?
Hi, I recently bought a 98 Civic hatch roller that was "ready for a k swap." I didn't get any details from the seller on the k swap readiness, I do know that the owner before him had a gsr turbo swap in it though. I'm wondering if this car has an eg subframe, or ek. Also the steering rack looks to be a power steering rack to me but would love to have that verified here if anyone is knowledgeable on that? Thanks guys! If you have nitrous questions hmu !

96-00 Subframe with a P/S rack in it. Usable with a k swap, however from what I remember you are limited on header size when using the 96-00 subframe vs the EG/Integra one.

How can you tell that it's an ek subframe? Also, the brake lines have been "tucked" (relocated) from what I've been tol, but they worked when I rolled it into my parking spot downhill lol. So I'm assuming that I'll be breaking axles with my k swap on this ek subframe? And will a sidewinder turbo manifold fit? I'm building a turbo K20 going for around 800+ horsepower + nitrous.
Is it possible to grab an eg subframe with a manual rack all in one? Thanks!
