I get .dmp files every so often that I need to load in a database. Some of them are created with datapump and some with exp. Is there a simple way to tell them apart that I could put in a script?

Get an example of each and look at them in a hex editor such as HxD. Each type probably has header or something else at the start of the file that identifies what it is. Open the file and check for which it is.
