Yes, it is the same 2958cc engine as the Hilux 3VZ-E, but the Camry uses 'F' heads meaning "Economical Twin Cam" whereas the Hilux variant uses single cams.

Hilux: 3VZ-E
Camry: 3VZ-FE

Break down:
"3" = 3rd-generation and 2958cc
"VZ" = VZ Engine Block Family
"F" = Twin Cam with Steep-Angeled Valves for better Fuel Economy
"E" = Electronic Fuel Injection

 Did the 3VZ-FE  have the same headgasket problems because of the different heads?

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

"I don't believe in a government that protects us from ourselves."
