gnus-user-agent is set to (emacs gnus type) in my emacs (I guess that is
the default, I don't remember changing it).

Perhaps writing something like this works:

 (setq gnus-user-agent '(emacs gnus type))

?

I think so, cf. the documentation of gnus-user-agent:

,----[ C-h v gnus-user-agent RET ]
| `gnus-user-agent' is a variable declared in Lisp.
|   -- loaded from "gnus"
| 
| Value: (emacs gnus type)

| Documentation:

(Note, I am using No Gnus, I haven't checked if this is the same in
older Gnusae).

I usually use 't' to do this in Gnus.

Also may also like C-u g which displays the raw article/email without
any formatting.
