To get the actual configuration of a ext[23] fs, you can use 'tune2fs -l <device>'. To get the current state of data mode of an ext3 fs, look at dmesg. I don't know another way to get that info.
The data mode is decided at mount time, with 'mount -o data=xxx <device>'.

FWIW, I remember having found all that info in man tune2fs, man mount and man mke2fs.
