Therefore there "are" other life forms who not only are compatible with our gene code, but with all of natures diversity, may even look like us.
If the other planet is about the same size as earth, they might look like us. But if it's larger or smaller, then the gravity is totally different and it affects the environment that the "life" has to evolve in. So then it may look totally different.

It's certainly a possibility, but there's no decent proof of that.
