Default LH6 vs LY5

Besides the block material, is there a difference in the motors? Specifically, the camshafts?

NO. According to GM Vortec engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The LH6 with Active Fuel Management replaced the LM4 for 2005, and was the first of the Generation IV small block V8 truck engines to go into production. It is the aluminum block counterpart to the LY5."
