Is there any way that I differentiate between them at this stage

Why do you need to differentiate them?

Just plant each tray/pot load in a separate row.

As they grow, the onions will develop tubular hollow leafs whilst the
leeks will develop flat leaves.

Except that they are planted differently. Leeks should ideally be
dropped into a hole so the base is a few inches below the soil level to
give a good white stem. Onions are planted level with the soil.
