you can tell if it was done by jailbreakme.com from the bootup screen. It will have strange lines of pixels on boot up if done with jailbreakme.

You can try to load a custom firmware then. Use the new sn0wbreeze to make a custom 4.1 and try to shift-click restore to it. If you get no error and it works then you were jailbroken with blackra1n. If you get an error 16XX then you were probably jailbroken with spirit. In that case google spirit2pwn, that will allow you to install a custom firmware if jailbroken by spirit.

If he used a custom firmware then you should be fine to make a custom 4.1 and restore to that.

You dont need spirit2pwn. Just make the custom 4.1 firmware with sn0wbreeze then shift-click restore to it.

You should be fine with the custom firmware. They do not update your baseband. Just stay away from the stock 4.1 and you will be alright.
You may want to do some research on the compatibility of ultrasn0w on 4.1 first.

I just did a quick search and have seen a few guides saying ultrasn0w works just fine on 4.1 custom so you should be good to go.
