The important number is 12200411. Or just 411 for short. That unit was used in a lot of GM vehicles from around 2002 plus or minus a couple years.
My 2002 Z06 has the same one. I bought a spare from an ebay seller for $90 or so. It's used of course, but it's clean and they flashed it with the right software and even matched the VIN. Haven't tested it in my car yet but it's been hooked up to my PC and sending/receiving the messages I expected it to.
Coincidentally, I and a couple other guys are working on free software to reprogram them, but it's probably a couple/few months away from being useful.

There's still some "secret sauce" that's not on github yet, but 99% of the code is there, and I think we'll do a release in a couple/few weeks that supports reading. Writing will probably take another couple months or so.

C5 pcm nomenclature
It's easy to get confused when trying to research this stuff. Earlier I read that it only matters what color the main connections are. I've noticed that most are red/blue, but I've also seen green tossed into the mix. While searching on eBay I did notice some sellers have the automatic trans versions separated. If you try to ask a salesman for info they'll basically tell you to take a hike so they can get paid...so I'm hoping this internet conversation will help others later on down the road. After all, if Corvette owners can't help one another then the world really is a gloomy place to be. LOL
