Default SLP Ls6 Intake Help

So bought the car with ls6 intake on. Found it leaking around the egr fitting. O-rings are bad. Put new oring in and still leaks. With the intake being rounded and the egr fitting it just doesn't seal. I don't know if there are missing parts or whats going on. Please help.

LS6 intake with EGR sounds fishy to me. My guess is you a stock LS1 intake or someone tried to cut the LS6 intake for EGR and messed it up. Have any pics?

No problem. I'm just trying to figure out a way to seal it up. The head of the brass fitting pushes up through the inside of intake with an o-ring the way it was set up. But with the curvature of the intake the head doesn't sit flush so the oring pushes outside of the head of the brass fitting.
