Not quite right.

Holden rebranded the name from (its internal designation) 'Aurora' to HMS. It has heads/cylinders that do away with the previous GM siamesed bore configuration and is similar to the evenly spaced Ford unit in that regard.

The (Olds) Aurora engine is an entirely different configuration. DOHC 4.0 V8, which was raced in Indycar. The two engines should not be confused.
