There's no such thing as a numerical partition type in Apple partition maps. cfdisk or parted could be used to create a different partition table (precluding use of MacOS). Or LVM could be made Apple partition format aware (using either a new partition type or partition name for detection; I'd prefer the partition name (like, "LVM 1" etc. as that can easily be added with mac-fdisk. (Creating other partition types is only marginally more difficult, simply us 'C' instead of 'c' to create the partition). To reiterate: I don't see any solution without making LVM accept Apple partition maps in the first place. Which part of LVM checks the partition type? Can you show me some sample code?
