John,
The engine is a 2005 3.2. No way around it, the shop is lying to you. They have simply stuck a cable throttle body and front plenum from on it. They have tried to modify your old harness conectors so they match up with the later variocam actuators but found a problem when they tried to use it with the old 5.2.2 DME. This is because the later variocam has a wider range of cam timing than the older cars and thus the DME throws a fit. This is probably why they left them disconnected. The serial number on the block is the tell-tale case. The engine is a non-remanufactured 2005 3.2L Boxster S engine, period. They are lying to you.
-Todd
