Default LS1 intake, LS6 intake

Can you tell the difference between the LS1 intake and the LS6 intake by looking at it? Just a weird question. If you can tell, how? thanks for info!

There are a few different part numbers..(someone on here will have the numbers, don't have them with me at the moment) But the LS6 intake will be flat on the bottom and an LS1 intake will be raised slightly down the center on the bottom.

Also, an LS6 intake will not have an EGR hole on top right behind the throttle body opening. The C5 LS1 intake will not have this hole either as there is no EGR on the C5. But, if it does have that hole, then it's an F-body (camaro/firebird) LS1 intake.

Those are easy ways to tell the differences by looking...
