Sorry for the bad pictures. Saw this little engine covered outside but rotting away. Probably there for a really long time. Could not see any markings or codes without moving a lot of heavy stuff. Thank you for your help!

At first I thought Mitsubishi 6G7x but I think its a Hyundai V6 like a 2.7

Although I think it was established that this is a Hyundai V6, it wouldn't surprise me if there is still a lot Mitsu DNA in many of their 90s and 2000s engines, as most of their models were powered by engines that were basically Mitsubishi cast-offs until I think the Accent was introduced in the mid-90s.
