ls1 Cadillac

about 10 years ago I restro moded a 1956 Studebaker wagon. I installed a 1999 LS1 out of a Camero. For an engine cover I bought one off ebay that I slightly modified. I am trying to buy another cover. Here's my question. Did Cadillac ever put a LS1 in from the factory? I am going from my memory that the one I bought came from a Cadillac, but I cannot seem to find one on ebay that looks like it. If you goggle (barrett jackson lot 156.1 Studebaker Champion custom wagon) you will see my old car on Barrett Jackson when it went across the block. There is a picture of the cover I am looking for. It is the orange and white retro mod. Any ideas what I am looking for. Thanks

Size:  36.0 KBI like to finish up my threads with final results so here goes.
Started with buying the cover mentioned above. The cut it down to fit my motor. Had it painted and then went on the hunt for a bowtie emblem to replace the CAtillac emblem. Found this aftermarket valve cover breather that I then cut the top off the fit my application and then the final result. Thanks everyone. On to the next upgrade.
