I belive it is vtec. I dont think that valve cover says vtec, mine doesn't and I have it.

theres 2 vtec SOLENOIDs there ... one with green and yellow and the other yellow with orange ... n with a intake pipe and filter i cant hear vtec .. but on my old sohc VTEc i chould hear it

two vtec solenoids? i dont think so... unless i am wrong.. but i thought they the motors only had one vtec solenoid

although.. i am pretty sure that the d15b is a 3 stage vtec motor... i forgot what the hp was rated at.. but i am sure searching "d15b" would help you immensely

There you are.
