Umm need more than just a random part number.. V8, V6, out of a car, truck... efi or carb...
That partnumber could be the UPC code on a cerial box for all Google knows... you need to be more specific with the search field.

It was replaced in 03....and it seems it has 241 heads on it...
What im wondering is this...did ANY aftermarket parts go into the motor....is there any way to find that out? I know the dealership where the swap was done and the date etc etc.

Because it isn't shiny like it is supposed to be!
I really mean it too, if I am not mistaken the LS1 block is shiny
and the LS6 is a dull 
gray.Whereas you can tell a VTEC block by the characteristic

It mentioned ways to identify if you were one of the "lucky" ones. Mostly by identifying the different appearance of the block due to different casting/material/whatever they were talking about.
Basically they said if you stuck one next to the other LS1 was shinier/lighter in color than the LS6.
Ooooooookay, I just looked at the LS6 in my garage and despite it being uber clean it isn't a bit shiny. Now I don't remember how shiny my other 2 LS1's were butttt...
I would expect that they were a bit lighter in color than the LS6 if I remember correctly.

Look at these pics....if your looks like these you have an LS1 block if you circle is filled in you have an LS6 block
The LS6 has slightly larger bay-to-bay holes casted between the cylinders at the bottom of the bores. It lets air move around at higher rpm with a bit less turbulence so there isn't as much whipping of the oil.
Slightly more reinforcement in the webbing, and the alloy is slightly stronger than the LS1 alloy.
