it's running quite fast actually, but i need an explanation on how exactly i can detect orphans, and mark them as so.

Yes, it is running fast but, why do you wan to detect is as you can see last 2 years there are zero orphan blocks mined. You can check all the details of the orphan block in the link below:

Also, here are all the blocks that are "mined but ultimately not attached to the main Bitcoin blockchain".
