Use # fdisk -l or # sfdisk-l or # cfisk -l These commands will tell you the file system. Do "man fdisk" if you don't know the potential of these commands. They can inflict harm. They will read the filesystem without compromising integrity, and you should have a write blocker anyway that will protect the drive.

Is there any way that I can identify what file system type is on a hard disk without jeopardizing the integrity of the hard disk? Thanks for the help.
