The black one is still a 3.0 same as yours. The only difference is it’s the VVTi version from the Lexus that produces about 30 more bhp than the non VVTi version. You must be thinking of the 2GR engine.

Why would the mot tester want to lift the engine lid?

To inspect the rear suspension top mounts for one.
