BB checks, Hero ???

I've been trying to increase the value I'm getting from my hands, and this is a spot that I'm kind of torn on though I know it's pretty basic. Is this a clear check or should we be betting for value?

A8, 98, misc suited 8x, 99, TT, even JJ, all in range for an unknown. Hard to imagine you'll lose much EV by assuming he's a donk who can't fold top pair or a smaller overpair until he proves otherwise. He's been completely passive so far, so no reason to believe you're behind.

I bet 40.
