I bought a used '99 5.3 engine and it came with the computer and harness. Is there a way to get the mileage from the computer?

Not sure, but it will have the vin. So you could run a carfax and see what the millage was when it was salvaged.

Is the complete VIN listed on the engine or outside of the computer somewhere? If so, I can get a carfax without having to get the computer checked out.

No. It's stored in the instrument cluster.
