Default What comes on new 5.3 crate motor?

On my 2005 Silverado I'm getting my L33 5.3 motor replaced under warranty. Anyone know what does/doesn't come on the new motor. Wondering what will be reused from old motor and can't seem to find a clear answer searching the web yet. Thanks!

Edit: All I know is they told me a long block is on order.

A long block is the block with heads but no covers, intake etc....They will reuse your valve covers, TC cover , oil pan, intake etc....

What about water pump?

I would hope new plugs would be installed. I also hope the dealership will clean all parts they resuse such as the valve covers and oil pan.

Don't get your hopes up. I doubt that they'll clean anything, except maybe for the gasket surfaces.

You will not get a new WP. I would assume they would put in new plugs unless they are EXTREMELY slack.
