I really can't say, but I'd imagine an LS1 wouldn't be impossible to fit in there - might be time for a little measurement!
The wiring etc. can be sorted - places like Castle Auto Electrics that do a lot of LS1 conversions can sell you all the bits you need, even pre-done looms, if you're not the adventurous type.
The AFM is often done away with by people when they get the ECU remapped, it's up to you really.
The fuel system is returnless, like more and more cars use now - basically, the pump is PWM'd to control pressure, and there is no reg/return line.
Many people choose to buy new engines from the US (crate motors! grouse mate! sic!) - ask around, and you may well find this a cost effective option.
Personally, I probably wouldn't put an LS1 into a Hiace, but good luck all the same.
