Neglected Silverado LM7 5.3L V8 Engine Teardown. Maintenance? Whats Maintenance?

After last weeks doublefront wheel loader teardown, I needed something a little... how do I say this, easier? I needed a break so I fell back on one of the easiest engines I've done on the channel, a good ole LS architecture V8, the 5.3L Iron block LM7 found in 9907 Silverado, Yukon, Tahoe, suburban, Sierra, avalanche and escalade.
This poor engine wasn't tortured, it was neglected. This scenario is absolutely 100% without a doubt avoidable with some CHEAP oil changes. This type of neglect will kill even the most resilient engines.
My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart located in the Saint Louis MO area. Part of our model is dismantling and selling parts from rare and niche market engines. I don't build or rebuild engines, we simply supply hard parts to those that do!
Want to see a particular engine torn down? I may have already done one! No really, check out my other videos for the engine you'd like to see! I've made over 60 other teardowns from a Cummins to an LS7, and from Rotary to Ram Ecodiesels. You can expect a new teardown every week!

As always I appreciate all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
What will I tear apart next week? Just wait and see!
Eric
