I have done this before but it could require precise temperature control.
Take the part and put it in an oven or subject it very gently with a flame torch to higher temps. Do not put the flame directly on the part. Look at the size of the defect. If the defect collapses, it is a void. If the defect increases in size, it is air.
This is a little tricky. If you do it, please post some pictures (with permission of your company). We would all love to see them.
Thanks,
Suhas

Another thing that might give you some insight is to run a fill progression. If you are trapping air in the cavity, the fill progression can indicate where you need to improve venting.
