If it's a DO, the bracts over the male flowers should fall off, leaving a clean rachis.

Orinoco fruits are angular, but not necessarily triangular. See the photos in the wiki and in the link below:
TARS 17397 - Musa hybr. - Dwarf Orinoco - Florida, United States
Yes, a clean rachis and a long peduncle (relative to most dwarf varieties) would be good evidence of DO.
