Default 1998 Camaro 3.8 swap

So I’m looking at a motor just cause I wanna drive my damn car again not looking to do anything fancy just yet I have a guy selling a 2005 Buick lacrosse 3.8l and was wondering if anyone knows the differences between the original 3800 that was in the Camaro and the Buick lacrosse 3800 I was told that all I needed to do was swap the upper and lower intake and put all my accessories on the motor but my question is does it have the same motor mount bolt locations on the block as the 3800 from the Camaro and will it work? Going to buy the motor in a week so looking for answers

Long block will work, just make sure its a 3800 SIII not the 3.6
