Yeh, it's the X16XEL. Only difference bewtween the X16XE and the X16XEL is the inlet manifold IIRC. Think the the X16XE is about 4-5bhp more too.

The X16XEL has a different inlet that produces more torque, but less BHP.
It is an X16XE bottom end with a X14XE head. The head has smaller ports than an X16XE.
The L is for lower output.
