Default how to tell difference between ls1/ls6 intake!

my buddy just bought a intake off ebay that was supposed to be a ls6 intake. after he bought it the guy told him that the intake came off a 97-00 vette. it doesnt have the egr hole, but correct me if im wrong but the ls6 didnt come out till the 01 z06 correct? i told him to contact the seller and get the part number that's the only way to find out.

The bottom of the intakes is the deciding factor. Ls1 has a rounded bottom from center to side. Ls6 has a flat bottom.
