Default 98 ws6 with 01 motor?

i was told that when i got the car it had a ls6 intake manifold. not really caring i took it with a grain of salt. now that im gettin ready to dyno it i just got curious and went out to look. i dont see any previsions on it for egr. i may be looking in the wrong place but i didnt see any in the front of the intake manifold. i was also looking for a PN and on the corner of the head it read 241. i thought that was only late model 00' and up fbodies with that. does this mean i might have the ls6 block? anyway this could be the right motor or is it really newer than 98 or whats going on here.

MOST 01 and all 02 F-Bodies had LS6 Intake Manifold. There's a bit chance you do have it, there's a way to check, i just forgot, just by looking @ it.

no. all ls1 motors use oil and its just the ature of the engine. theres not really anything you can do but keep a watchful eye on the oil level
