Easy question! If you look at the bottom of the intake the ls6 should have a flat surface as the ls1 has a curved surface that comes to something like a point in the middle.

Look for the part number close to where the manifold meets the head.

Part numbers:

The 97-00 'Vette LS1 is 12556333.

The 2001-2004 Corvette LS6 is 12573572.

The 2001-2002 F-body LS6 (identical to 'Vette but diff part #) is 12561184.
