Default LT-4 intake manifold vertification

Are they any identifying numbers, marking,or factors to verify a LT-4 intake manifold? I have one that looks like a LT-4 manifold because it is powdercoated red. You can tell that all the machining was done after the powdercoating. I've heard that the LT-4 manifold does not have an egr valve, this one does.

Thanks,
Kerry

I did some port work on my LT4 intake, under the sheetmetal plate on the bottom of the intake I found LT4 cast into the manifold in fairly large letters. Well, I had a ... porting accident and ended up ordering a replacement through a GM dealer. The replacement did not have the same LT4 cast in, in fact I could not find any LT4 marks. Made me pretty unsure if it was the right thing, but a comparision of the features seemed to indicate it was the right thing. Both the orginal and the replacement have the EGR passages in them, they just get blocked off.

I know I have seen it posted here before, but anyone have a specific list of what is different between the LT1 and LT4 intakes?

Jeff

Here is the photo of my LT4 intake manifold. You have to remove the oil shield to see the "LT4" casting mark.
