Not true, I've pulled LS1 intakes off of C5's that didnt have EGR. im not sure if they are all like that or just certain years but that isn't a fool proof method.
I would say if you have the intake loose(not installed on motor) then the easist was to identify it would be spending <5 seconds turning it upside down. taking the numbers to the dealer is a hassel and uncalled for.
if the bottom floor area in the middle between the ports is flat(it will have a raised checker design to it for strength) its and LS6 intake.
if the bottem floor has a wave length wise to it then you have an LS1 intake.
I've decided to make it even easier, here is a comparison pic. the one on the right is the LS6. sorry about the size.
