Very much appreciate the intel.

If the Columbus tubing decal is original the frame will be SL or SP or possibly a mixture of the two, but you may already know that much.
Merckx was semi mass producing frames at that time, so I _suspect_ one or the other, most probably SP given the frame size, rather than a mixture.
I can’t speak for Merckx specifically, but many builders didn’t differentiate between the two, just transitioning from one to the other in larger sizes.
Weighing the frame may be more definitive, from memory there’s several hundred grams between the two tube sets.
