Another way to recognize a 12V starter is the shape of the drive lugs on the armature shaft. They're made in a slight spiral, while the 6V ones are straight. That turns the drive slightly as it engages the flywheel teeth and minimizes the possibility of teeth jamming together and failing to engage. Jerry
