If the v6 in the entire range of 4th gens is the same, any idea why car-part.com shows only 03-04 when you search for 04 and when you search 06 it shows 05-09? I'd opt for the later years because of the real or perceived head gasket fix.

Probably because its a different transmission that its bolting to. This relationship probably had an effect on the ECU as well.
 
The engines are actually slightly different despite them carrying the same 1GRFE name. This has been documented a few times but it's probably buried in a thread somewhere. I will see if I can find them but I would recommend you double check that you're getting exactly the same engine.
