Both are Isuzu G engines, but the Chevette used a OHV 1.4 or 1.6L, and the LUV used a SOHC 2.0L.

The Chevy LUV used a 1.8 Liter engine thru 1981. The 1.8 is visually different than the Chevette engines.

There are enough 4 cylinder engines out there in scale that one should be able to find on that reasonably resembles the Luv engine.  Recently or easily available kits include Datsun and Toyota and even the Dodge D50 Mitsu pickups.  Yes, there may be a scale difference but as long as it looks right sitting in the bay

Bob Bond's Chevy Luv built in 1975. Always liked these mini trucks.

Here are a couple Luv's I built in 1979 from the original version on this kit.
