If you are looking for a replacement LY7, you’d want to get a SV6 or Calais V6 from 2009 as these produce a smidgen more power but probably more noticeable would be the fact that max torque is lower down the revs at 2600 rpm rather than at 3200 rpm...
As is, VIN contains a lot of info and should decode the model variant. Documented here , so worth a gander.
The LY7 is the regular product option code for your engine but what the 10HV7 means i have no idea. However this high output variant has variable exhaust and intake cams and variable intake plenum so it should be visible by looking at pictures of the engine.
Surely Holden Customer Care or dealer spare parts would also know what the code means and could be able to whisper the secret to you
