I was thinking Simple.
If Calibre generated the default cover: Simply Tag it (so it could be found later by a plugin/OS tool) that Only looks for that tag word.
All "Normal covers do not get a tag", even if Calibre resizes them.

@
theducks - apologies if I'm misunderstanding you but...
It might be better to 'flag' the book in the database rather than 'tagging' the image. This would ensure that Calibre's integrity is maintained. The database is the repository for metadata, if one starts distributing it in different places then... what next
The Open With plugin allows one to open the cover in an image editor. For editing a cover, I use IrfanView, where my default settings in Save discards all the metadata - EXIF, IPTC, XMP & JPG Comment.
The database 'flag' could be a column with one of four values:
None,
Calibre Default,
Generate PI and
Custom. All the features of Calibre could be 'applied' to the column, sorting, selection etc, but maybe not editing.
