For general information, I'd like to know how you can tell the difference looking at the pictures that were posted.

Little tell tales you pick up on over the years of working on them. Some obvious on3s ate a loop charged 150 is a 60 degree v6, and that cowling is to wide as it is obviously a 90 degree v6 cowling. I can tell from the height its a v6 cowling(but I've seen v6 cowkings on v4s). The 2 little exhaust ports coming out below the cowling are also dead give aways as omc changed those in 88 for all v engines except for the old cross flow engines. The style and shape of the cowling is that of a cross flow engine as loopers were physically larger and required a bigger cowling. And a few other little things I seen.
