I believe it will be the 200 kw engine. You verify it simply as all the 220 kw engines have a name plate of the engine builder on the left (I think) rocker cover.

AUII utes only got the 200kw. Pursuit utes and T series got the 5.6 stroker.
200kw motors also had a plaque with the engine builders name. |

But back onto the subject, the AU3 utes only got the 200KW engines even though the sedans got the 220!! I agree with Pinkbits that it should only be a 200KW engine and I had a hell of a fight with the dealer to try and get a 220KW when they replaced the engine to no avail.............
