Default 2wd

I have been offered a set of front brake calipers for a cosworth. Only problem is the guys who is selling them doesn't know if they're for a 2wd or 4x4. I require a 4x4 set.
How can I tell??
All help apreciated.

The 2wd has the 2 pots on the outside, like the pic:

The 4x4 has 1 bigger one (if they are like the Esc Cos ones, which im pretty sure they are?)

As he above says, just look for the pads if you can see them from side on view they are 4wd as you can see these in the carrier, the back of the pad.
4wd single piston sliding caliper, 2wd ones 4 pots much much better.
