For this problem is equivalent to the halting problem, you cannot in
every case. There is no algorithm which can.

Of course, you can detect it if you're lucky. And it will help very
much, if the person, who is implementing the tunneling, is dumb.

If the tunneling is done in a clever way, it will be very hard up to
impossible to detect. Of course, this depends on how much data usually
is transmitted regulary, and how much information is to be transmitted
hidden.
