Default Is this LS1 or LS6 intake?

Can you tell from a picture?

I've read the egr hole is missing means it's a LS6

Do you have a pic of the bottom ?

Usually no EGR hole is a LS6 intake but there are some LS1 intakes for the Corvette that don't have the hole either.

If the bottom is flat it's a LS6. If it's curved it's a LS1

I'm assuming its aftermarket so odds are in favor of it being an ls6 style as opposed to an ls1 style.

You can always look at the bottom and tell for sure, sometimes no hole may still be a ls1 from a vette.
