Default Question regarding EGR/AIR

I have a 98 z28 that I putting back to stock. I installed exhaust manifolds off of a 2000 camaro along with cats off of a 2000 camaro. I am having issues on how to run the EGR and AIR systems. I have an AIR system from a 98 Camaro but they don't match up exactly, can the metal tubes be bent to fit? The tube from the egr (98 egr) is way too short to make it to the port for the EGR on manifold, is my only solution to get a complete '00 EGR setup or can it be modified to fit? Local recycler apparently will not take any parts off of a complete 00 and up ls1 so I am stuck.
another question: since it now has cats from a 2000, will the 02 sensors still hook up to them. same number of 02 sensors still right?
Car has been down for over a month and am trying to get it running to pass smog asap.

thanks!

I put headers with emissions fittings on my 99 camaro and the egr didnt line up all the way. I carefully with a pry bar bent the egr tube to fit. It kinked at the bottom of the egr valve but it works. Also Im not sure what emissions test NorCal has but in Missouri if your car is 99 or older it pass with 2 monitors not run. hope this helps.
