when you take the EGR pipe out of the front of the intake
ok
so
Incase anyone wanted a tutorial
Unplug the EGR.. 1 plug top of the egr canister
Unbolt the 1 bolt on the EGR connecting it to the intake: 1 10mm bolt
Unbolt the 2 bolts holding the EGR canister to the Passengerside Head: 2 15?mm bolts
Unbolt the EGR from the old exhaust manifold: 2 10mm bolts
Remove the EGR from the car..
Get in truck
GO to NAPA
Get 1 3/8 inch steel freeze plug from napa... 85 cents inc tax
Get Black Spray paint.. 3 bucks
Get Orange RTV gasket maker with copper.. 4.99
go home
Black Krylon paint... Spray paint both sides
Apply RTV on the side of the plug, pretty liberally
Set in hole in intake
Get 7/8 socket or the biggest one you have, set it in the plug
Tap in Gently with a "small" hammer
Finish the rest of your header install like me...... or bolt up/fabricate a blockoff plate for the gaping hole where you EGR used to bolt up.
go drive
