Default C5 intake identification

I'm shopping for the newer updated intake manifold for my 2000 coupe on ebay and would like to know what questions to ask to keep the seller honest.
Are there any markings or numbers or other ways to identify the newer intakes that would help me make sure I'm getting what I pay for?

Welcome to the forum :)

... I think the quickest way to tell from pics is if the intake has brass inserts on the front passanger side of the intake right near where the crank case breather hose hooks to the throttle body... as well as not having a big hole (F-body EGR) on top right behind the throttle body.

:cheers:

Thanks for your response. I'm looking at item 2417650950 on ebay. I can't see the brass inserts you mentioned. Would you mind taking a look at the picture to verify that they really are not visible. If they are, can you point them out to me?
Thanks
