Default 5.9 or 5.2

Ok everyone... I bought my 98 Ram Sport used from a guy who SAYS that he replaced the original 5.2 engine with a crate 5.9

How do I know if this is actually true? is there a visible difference?

On one side of the block or other..... the displacement is actually cast in to the block. Have a look.

Driver's side, below the exhaust manifold.

When he swapped in the 360 did he swap the flywheel or flexplate/converter?
