to snap this shitty pic. I know it doesn't mean much but it's kind of unique for our cars):

actually i got a flood light and shined it under my car looking for a valve spring lock that i dropped and happened to notice it. i figured that now was as good of a time as any to check it out, and it turns out i had an ls6. yay for me! and you!

I had an LS6 block in my car from the factory until I hydrolocked it, I replaced it with a crate LS6 engine.
I thought it was kinda unique that it had that block but there's no real additional value in having that block except for the revised oiling abilities.
Cheers

Here's a thread from last July that discussed the 'bullseye' mark that can be used to differentiate the 2 blocks. If you have the bullseye then you have an LS1 block- probably. You still need to check the casting number to be sure.
