The cap will be held on with screws and not clips and if you take the cap off there will be a round metal disc in there with lots of slots cut in it. There's a very slim chance it'll have one.

once you take off the cap....inside there will be the rotor....and under the rotor will be a metal cover....and under that will be the metal disc with lots of slots cut into it

Hah, yeah forgot about that metal plate, mine hasn't had a cap on it for ages.

But pretty much if it has a screw on cap theres a high probability it's an optical one.
