OET (OET-LV) If anyone may_be_wanting to_be_practicing the will of_him, he_will_be_knowing concerning the teaching, whether it_is from the god, or I am_speaking from myself.
OET (OET-RV) If anyone wants to do God’s will, they’ll soon figure out whether my teaching comes from God or if I’m just making it up myself.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐστιν & ἀπ’ ἐμαυτοῦ
from ¬the God ˱it˲_is & from myself
Here, from is used to indicate the source of Jesus’ teaching. A teaching could only have authority if God was its source. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “it is with God’s authority … only with my own authority”
7:17 Those who truly want to do the will of God receive and accept Jesus and his teaching (see also 5:42-47). Those who focus on the world, by contrast, are not receptive to Christ.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
