Default Engine swap AJ8 Gen 3 into 2004-2009 XJ 350 358

I have a 2007 xj with a high mileage 4.2L V8 engine and was wondering about swapping to a late model 2010-2016 Gen 3 5L V8. Were there any physical differences between the two engines? I know the transmission will be an issue but I'm talking about mount points and space under the hood.

Thanks!
