Default LS6 Intake manfold?

Okay so i'm going through my glove box and i found a receipt for an LS6 Intake manifold, i have a 1999 Firehawk so originally they're supposed to come with LS1 intake manifolds, (I've been trying to contact the previous owner of the car for about 2 months now) but i'm trying to figure out if he took it off before he sold the car or not, are there any specific things i can tell from the outside of it? or not

You can tell from the outside, the LS1 intake had a EGR tube that entered the intake right after the throttle body.

The LS6 intake does not have a EGR on the intake.

Not totally true on the lack of the EGR.

SLP sells an LS6 intake with the EGR tube option.
