Healey 3000 Mk1 engine Vs Wolseley 6/110

Hi - I'm fairly new to the Healey scene having recently acquired a 59 BT7. Its not been on the road since 1971 so in the main very original and untouched although definitely shabby chic..... My plan is to "preserve" it as a barn find car rather than restore it but it will be needing a full mechanical overhaul. Most of which is now done but the engine has just come out and being stripped. The short engine has been transplanted from a Wolseley 6/110 (29W engine No) at some point but it still has the original 3000 head, gearbox, carbs etc fitted) and hence my following questions.

1) What parts in the short engine will be different to the MK1 3000?
2) How would i identify the cam to be 3000 Vs 6/110 or are they the same?

Thanks
