I've come up with an idea which I will verify tomorrow morning with my professor: 

STATA is not able to identify in the reverse equation each single coefficient but I can compare the builted ratios from forward equation with the "naturally" estimated coefficient by STATA. According to Hahn and Hausman, under strong instruments, there should be no difference. indeed under weak instruments I should find different results..

what do you think?
