While #11 is helpful, its information is limited: as I realised, Flashbots misses quite a handful of easy-to-detect MEV. Another strategy might be first to identify a few active MEV bots, and then analyse their transactions. Since we know they are bots, any transaction involving them in which we can't find MEV would be suspicious, and might hint at missing some arbitrage.
