If you are stroking it out, the LQ4 and the LQ9 will be identical, the LQ4 being more easily found and usually cheaper.
Here is some numbers that I got:
12551364
12573581
12577184
I know the block number on my LQ4 was the first one (12551364), haven't verified the others cause I don't have my book at work.

You can't buy a new GM LQ4 block. The numbers I listed are all of the new available blocks. There is no difference between the LQ4 and LQ9 blocks anyways. If the OP wants to quick ID a 6.0L, just look at the left front of the block with the accessory drive stuff out of the way and 6.0L is cast into the block surface.

It is a 4" bore. I will go ask someone about the discrepency, one page show 4" the chart shows 3.98". Perhaps because it an iron block and the LS2 is aluminum, they give you more honing leeway. Or it could just be a good old fashioned typo.
OK i know LS1,2,3,6,7 but dont know all the trucks above the L92 is a 6.2 alum block-pretty sure - would someone chime in on the list above 5.3-6.0-6.2 and if theyre alum or iron? sorry pretty much a noob Q here
blocks L76 is same as ls2 but aussie so out of a GTO?
L92 is 6.2 truck whats the vin code ? i know a 6.0 is "U" the vin code stuff helps me when at boneyard when we find burnt veh ect
sorry didnt mean to hijack , tryin to be smarter every day
so lq4 and lq9 are iron - 5.3 or 6.0?

The L92 and the LS3 are identical castings.
If you didn't know the origins, the only way to tell the difference would be to pull the heads and look at the pistons. LQ9's had flat top pistons and LQ4's had dished pistons. The LQ4 has a compression ratio of 9.41:1 and the LQ9 had a CR of 10.x:1. If you bolted on a pair of 243's on to each, slid in a nice cam, added some bolt-ons, maybe a dash of spray...you'd have a mean machine.
