I still don’t buy it. I don’t think there is any indication we are dealing with Jews who necessarily appear differently than their gentile counterparts. The fact that you can ask is a far stretch to me especially because you can ask the woman who was mekudeshes. It just seems like you are splitting hairs where there is no real chiluk. My ela mai – as balebatish as it sounds – that the difference is the physical difference of bris – seems much more like the pashtus to me when weighed against this pshat.
