    There isn't an automatic way but you could do a split feature (using a mate connector directly) and mirror the one half with the "intersect" option, any material left indicates assymmetry so it doesn't take a lot of steps.

    I should also be pretty simple to do this in Featurescript if that's something you do a lot...
