What methods are there to identify persons as clones rather than natural humans.

There's mention of soft, unlined skin (baby soft) in a few pieces, such as one of the books or chronicles, any more signs?

Also, do clones have navels ?

Different skeletal composition, detectable with a skeletal scan. This is because clone bones are assembled differently.

Since the body is outwardly custom-made, it should by default come with a navel modeled on. Baby-soft skin isn't a necessary tell of clones, since you could program it to have wrinkles. You determine pretty much every external feature of your clone. You could even elect to have a clone with no navel, or one completely covered in navels, a screaming bellybutton-golem whose only reason for existence is to trap lint, and whose sole wish is the blissful release of death. Really up to you.

ah,yes, Osteoplastics, i think one of the cloning articles mentions it.

There's something in the Amarr epic arc about a clone that is undetectable, iirc.

Capsuleer clones are riddled with cybernetics that are externally visible on their backs. the looks of a capsuleer are established after the creation of the first clone of a man or woman. A fresh clone may have soft baby like skin, but after a while it will feel like normal adult skin.
