No, you do not have a Vortec intake on your Goodwrench 350. You'll have to get the right one.
The Vortec bolt pattern is different. But more important, the intake ports are in a different place.

That is correct.
Incidentally, GM's trademark word that means "we moved the intake ports" is "Vortec"; "Vortech" is the company that makes centrifugal superchargers. AFAIK Vortech doesn't make manifolds or heads.
