Default Comptech header b16 CA smog question

I bought and installed a used comptech header for my 99 civic si. It bolted up fine and runs fine as far as I can tell. Here is the question. I recently took it to smog and the smog man told me that the header is meant for a d16 and I did not pass the visual test. I did some research and I found that the header for d16 should not bolt up to my b16. So is the smog man lying to get me to pay for a second smog or is it possible that I really have a d16 header on my SI? Is there a way or website for me to find out which engine it belongs to?

Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.
