Bought a dud used 2010 SHO that had a blown turbo, then dropped a ring into the pan after 1000 miles, ended up putting a brand new set of turbos on and ordering a brand new Ford long block and had a bud with a shop throw everything together now everything runs great but am still curious if it has the new valve covers installed. I called the dealership I ordered the long block from and they said they had no clue. Is there a visual difference from the original valve cover and the updated one? or will I have to just have to order the new valve cover and figure it out myself?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Do you know if theres a visual difference I can spot without removing the valve cover?

They probably changed the baffling, so changes would be on the inside.  MIGHT be a part number on the outside but from the looks of these pics it is on the inside ...
