Interesting quote from the press release:

"VZ Monaro fuel tank relocated between the rear axle and rear seat (same as Pontiac GTO) to satisfy specific US legislative safety requirements. Relocation allows fitment of a full length split dual exhaust and a rear underbody tray which reduces rear lift by 16 per cent from 100 kmh and improves aerodynamic stability."

I note from the Holden press release that this new Monaro has the LS1 listed as the engine. This plus the 05 CTS-V (still LS6) seem to indicate that the 346 will be around for a while longer.
