I only have one physical SIM and my iPhone is aleady using an eSIM with a physical SIM. Unfortunately, I have no way of knowing which is which when I look at the ABOUT settings.
Does anyone know which is which? I'm thinking IMEI is the physical SIM?
iPhone 13 Pro Max
It's becoming needed info these days because it seems many teleco companies especially oversees companies are starting to get on the eSIM train. Their instructions ask what is your IMEI2 and then they will configure the phone number they provide you with your eSIM. They also want to ensure device is compatible on their network.
I don't want to risk wiping out my current eSIM I have and/or changing my call settings (calls made with which SIM or eSIM).

I concur w/ LD150 about the paucity of publicly available info on the subject.
However on my own “Dual-SIM” iPhone with 2x “active” lines:
IMEI is DEF the physical nanoSIM
IMEI2 is DEF the eSIM.
On my device and with my carriers at least - both are clearly identified in Settings -> General -> About.
I believe you are correct. Take out the SIM, restart the phone, and see what happens to the information.
I must admit it is not information that I have found at all useful to know.
IMEI2: digital (eSIM) or physical SIM?
