Is it the LS3? I do know that it's the 6.2 liter.

Same damn motor... The auto has Active Fuel Management which requires different lifters and programming but they're essentially the same.

LS3 and L99 are not the same. Aside from the AFM, the L99 has a lower lift cam, lower compression ratio, different springs/valves/lifters.

I'll ask my dad which diesel he had in his suburban, but he logged over 300,000 miles on it. But he's also a mechanic
