Default Corvette/Camaro LS1 differences

Can anyone tell me the difference between the LS1 that came in the 98-02 f-bodies and the 97-04 Corvette? I know the Corvette uses drive by wire,and I believe had a slightly different cam profile...but arent they basically the same?

97-98 Corvette LS1 came with a return fitting on the fuel rail.
98-up LS1s have center bolt valve covers versus perimeter bolts.
01-02 Camaro LS1 came with the LS6 intake.
97-00 LS1s had EGR provisions. 01-up does not.
98-00 Camaro LS1 has a larger camshaft than 01-02 Camaro LS1.
98, 01-02 Camaro LS1 came with 28lb/hr injectors. 99-00 came with 26lb/hr
