And based on OP's original question of "How do I discover the CPU's
bus width?", he probably should have asked how to determine the
register size of the CPU. I think that was closer to what he wanted
to know.
YES.

My underlying question was explicitly the character of the installed
processor.
I now formally ask:
How do I determine the register size of its CPU (its architecture)?
Note:
I was an active computer _user_ surrounded by *GEEKS* a decade before
the 8080 was introduced, not buying my first machine {a Commodore PET}
until 1977. I tend to speak that era's idiom.
