Lightbulb 823 heads on L99

Happy New Year Guys!
I could not find a clear information and thus decided to put this question over here.

My engine is L99 (2012 Camaro 2SS).
I see my engine's heads have casting # 823.

Q to L99 owners: do you have the same heads on your L99?

Any difference from LS3 heads (I found that Ls3 has the same #):

Thank you camarads!

Most LS3s have 821s.

Thanks for your input.

I haven't looked at mine. Might do it when I have some spare time. Is there any difference between them?

821 is LS3 with hollow intake valves.
823 is L99 with solid intake valves.

Thank you Bo. Why are they hollow on L99, and solid on LS3?
