No idea on that particular frame I'm afraid, but I found this very useful when I had to sort out a headset for my bike:

Can you post a pic of the headset in the frame?

Certainly sounds like an integrated

Looks like an integrated, you'll just need to work out the bearing face angle now 😀

Do STW rules allow pulling you up on "Intergraded" 7 posts in?

That frame has an integrated headset
You should have a sealed bearing cartridge fitted and it should be sitting on a crown race (which sits on top of your fork crown on your fork steerer.)
AFAIK.
