How can i find out what kind of battery i have in my truck

Hello, how can I find out what kind of battery I have in my truck? Like how can I find out if it's a

1: flooded lead acid battery (WET)?

2: enhanced flooded battery (EFB)?

3: gel cel battery (GEL) or VRLA?

4: absorbent glass mat battery (AGM)

For example I took a picture of the battery in my truck and it says "DURALAST GOLD 58-DLG" but it doesn't seem to say what TYPE of battery I actually have

I ran the model through Google and checked a few websites but none of them say what TYPE of battery I have, so is there maybe a website where I can put in a battery model number and get the information on what type of battery I have back?

Any information would be appreciated thank you

Removal caps to refill when low.

It's a flooded type. If it were of the AGM style, it would be marked as such.

It would be a Duralast Platinum 58-AGM if it were AGM.
