I personally prefer the lube path and OD parts used in the early units. They are missing the bolt hole at 12 o clock for the LS engines though.
Early is 91-96, then 97-up are late but there have been several changes on those as well.

Any year will work OK if setup properly. You can only make an educated guess about the condition based on fluid condition and residue in the pan.
