All C8s have tubular exhaust manifolds. There quite a few pictures and this sub-forum. Some comparing the stock headers with aftermarket headers. It is hard to see normally as the hidden within heat shields.

Living in Cali my goal with some aftermarket headers will be to try to weld tabs to them so factory heat shield will bolt on to them to hide them being aftermarket.
