Can't help with all info, but AFAIK, the V8 doesn't have a knock sensor (at least not the series 1 V8). Also the starter motor looks the same as the I6 starter. Alternator is situated on the drivers side, hanging off a bracket that bolts to the front RHS of the motor (really need pics, don't we).

If it helps, here's a pic of my engine bay:
