Seat Leon SE 1.6 TDI - is it EA189 or EA288

I have a SEAT Leon SE 1.6 TDI. The Engine code on the V5C is given as CLH but it is not totally clear whether I have a EA189 or EA288 engine - can you advise?

There might have been a bit of crossover. If it's the current shape car than it should have the EA288 and if it's rated at 110PS (81kW) then it definitely is the EA288. If it's rated at 105PS (77kW) then it's the older EA189.
