Ya I would definatley say a GM V6? 3.8 looks right, but why swap that into a civic?
Looks like theres a IC pipe in the bumper?

Not an LS1, it's a V6. The passenger-side intake cover does say "3.8L V6", but I don't think it's the vanilla Ford 3.8 V6. I can't quite make out what's on the driver's side cover, though. Looks to be a SOHC unit, whatever it is.

definately a v6, but that valvecover on the drivers side doesn't look like anything i've ever seen on a domestic... maybe its a dodge? I could be the dodge 3.3? What is the badge on the intake manifold?

Werd to 90tegra. The pic he posted is definately a match. You can see just by comparing the two pics. Definately the same engine.
Here is the pic he posted brightened up a bit for easier viewing...
