You'll want to choose your 5th wheel hitch based off of the GVWR of the trailer you're towing, but I typically like going with something a bit higher rated to give you some wiggle room if you decide to get a larger trailer in the future.
I recommend using the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20K # BWRVK3770, which will fit in the OEM prep package on your 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Denali. This hitch has a capacity of 20k so it's well rated for your Grand Design Solitude 321RL and the sliding hitch provides 12 inches of travel to give you extra clearance when performing tight turns. I really like that the B&W Companion hitch has 1 inch thick jaws, so they're a bit thicker than other comparable hitches and it means that you'll have a more secure connection to the kingpin and less rattle while traveling.

# C16671 you were looking at is also well rated and would work well; I just prefer B&W 5th wheel hitches a bit more because of the durability and quality of manufacturing. Both hitches have a lifetime limited warranty, so either way you're getting a quality hitch that's well rated for your Grand Design Solitude.
I've linked a short review video of this hitch for you to check out.
