This was the first clue:

Then verified the back of the block...sure enough 4.8. I was bummed at the time, but I've moved on and am actually looking forward to installing it....eventually. Now I know exactly the things to look for when inspecting one before buying it.
I will be back on the cab tomorrow. and start tearing the rusty front suspension.
