2009 Revised 5.4 3v

I have read so many post on the 5.4 3v engine and its problems that my head is spinning. Most state that the 2004-08 are mostly prone to the cam phasers, plugs breaking, exhaust leaks, etc. No matter how well these engines were maintained
Yes I know there are a handful of post stating they have over 100000,-200000, thousand miles but there's no comparison to the hundreds of post with these problems with low mileage.
I have read more than once that the 2009 5.4 3v was REVISED, but with no explanation as to what was revised.
Was a improved oil pump installed ? oil channels widened ? exhaust bolts improved ? Cam phasers , chains, tensioners improved ? or is the 2009 just as likely to develop the same problems ? No matter how well maintained
Does anyone know what was actually revised on the 2009 5.4, Please let us know
Would anyone in their right mind pay $39000. dollars for a truck that couldn't make it past 100000 miles ????
Thanks
