Default DOHC or SOHC?

Hi there I have just purchased a 1992 Ford Laser S KH 1.8i 5sp manual hatchback and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to tell if it's has a SOHC or a DOHC? I can't find anything written on the engine and the manual that came with the car says it's for a GL laser!! I am pretty sure it's a SOHC but I need to be certain so I can order parts for it. Any help would be appreciated thanks in advance.

If it's a S you have a Mazda BP 1.8 16v SOHC 76kw.

I agree, SOHC it is. They are a fine engine too!
