Marinus,
Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately that method wont guarantee
the separate accuracies of the Local oscillator and the BFO. For
example, if the LO was out by 100Hz and the BFO was also out by 100Hz it
would still zero-beat OK.
I could probably zero-beat with known-frequency stations across several
bands, and that way distinguish BFO errors from LO errors. BFO errors
would remain fixed, whilst LO errors would vary with frequency. But it
would still be useful to have a frequency reference in the shack that I
could trust.

What about the 10.000 Mhz reference standard? My Omni C receives that frequency
and you can use it to zero beat.
