How would I verify that this source was actually used?

Build it yourself and verify via hash that what is on the firmware is what would get written.

However, if you're so paranoid that you think this could be a problem, you're already outside the realm of buying preassembled computers anyways. Who knows who could have tampered with it en route?

Build it yourself, using a pencil, paper, and some sort of bit-flipping raygun. You can compile C in your head, right?
