Replacing 5.3 motor in 06 Trailblazer

Hey everyone,
First off I wanted to say this page has been thus far. I've found tons of helpful info on here while I've been working on my car. But unfortunately I've gotten to a point where I needed to finally officially join so I can ask a question.

So I have a 06 Trailblazer LT with the 5.3 in it, that blew this week after getting a few months of new parts and attention :cry: it's beyond repair, so I'm looking at getting a new motor to drop into the car. So my question is, what year/models of vehicle can I just drop in to plug and play? There seems to be a lot more Silverado motors around where I live, and was wondering if one of them would work. I know I'd have to reuse the oil pan from my current engine, but was wondering if there would be any other problems of things I'd need to swap over.

Thanks in advance!
