    Its simple. Mostly diesel engines are compression ignition and petrol engines are spark ignited one. If you see a spark plug its petrol engine or else it would be diesel engine.But still there is a complication that now researches are going on to manufacture a petrol engine which works on compression ignition. but conventional engines are as said above.

    The presence of fins in the engine compartment also differentiates them apart as Diesel engines have and petrol does not

    diesel engines will have injectors and hose pipes running from them.

    petrol engines will have spark plugs, plug cap, and thick electric cables running from them.

    Diesel engine will have an individual fuel injectors of each cylinder... you can see a series of fuel injectors at the top of each cylinder whereas in petrol engine which is spark ignited there will be no such fuel injectors present... spark plugs will be present over there 😀
