I'm not sure.  "show diag" should tell the difference, quite obviously,
but I'm not sure whether it's easily visible from the outside.

CCO is a bit thin on this, the search results mainly point to this
page

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/port_adapters/roadmaps/11022pa.html

... which makes clear that the PA-2FEISL and the PA-2FE-TX are different
PAs, but doesn't say anything about the FEISL itself either.

Here's a front side picture:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/port_adapters/install_upgrade/ethernet/pa-2feisl_100baset_install_config/3475over.html

the LEDs seem to be quite different from the PA-2FE-TX.
