It`s on the picture, inspect the flange, if it`s deepened like the one depicted by the green arrow, it`s single row, if not, as the one marked by yellow arrow, you have a dual row bearing. You can also inspect the bearing itself if you want, after locking the cams and crankshaft and pull the flange, then press the small shaft inside the IMS. You can pull it back on using a telescopic magnet tool.
