Is there an easy way to distinguish whether a property in an Entity, was a custom property or was derived from a column in the database table.

I would advise you to reference the TypedTable property, which has a Columns property that is a collection of the properties of the entity type that are mapped from the back-end table.  If the property of interest is in this collection it is derived from the table.
