You can filter for such files:  
NOT %\_covers% IS 1

Unless the embedded files have been assigned a type of cover (like front or back) you have no chance to compare the cover size within MP3tag.  
The help says: %\_cover\_size% Size of first cover art in the tag of the file in bytes  
But perhaps it is good enough to see the files with more than one cover and see manually if the embedded images have to be removed or become a different type of picture.
