Assuming they are both 3.1L V6, they are not exactly the same. The upper intake and front cover are different. If you are swapping motors and don't mind some extra work, it can be done. I owned dozens of these cars when I was a car dealer.

Yes, in 2000 the Malibu dropped its I4 engine leaving just the 3.1L V6 which remained the same in the 2000 to 2003 model years. It is also the same on the 2004 to 2005 Chevrolet Classic which is just a re-badged Malibu.

Is the engine in the 1997 Chevy Cavalier the same as a 2003 Chevy Cavalier and can you put a 2003 engine in a 1997 Chevy Cavalier?
Well yes and no. Both have a 2.2 four cylinder if I'm not mistaken, but I don't think the earlier Cavalier's have the EcoTec motor. And you should be able to get the engine from the '03 into the '97 with no problem.

5 quarts of oil. Don't forget to change the oil filter too. I own a 98 Malibu with the same engine (3100 3.1L) and the owners manual says 4.5 quarts. (4.5 qts.) THAT IS CORRECT!!! I just checked the dealer service manual yesterday.
