I grasp it you mean the OEM code in BH from int 21/3000. 
It is the first idea that jumps to mind, but 

*Is this really truthful in FreeDOS ?*

ICBW, but I think I remember seeing some compilations of FreeDOS
return MS's own id (FFh, iirc) instead of FreeDOS'es native ID here ! 

Further, DOS "truever" 3306 function does not return an OEM ID, does it? 

I'd rather trust a FreeDOS-specific function which returned the FreeDOS kernel 
version (as, e.g, 1.1) rather than a function which pretends to be DOS 7.10, 
for a start !
