Default EGR tube

Does anybody know where to find a replacement? Which is what I would rather do. If a replacement isnt available, is plugging the intake and exhaust ports acceptable?

That sounds good. It looks like plugging it will be sinmple enough.

The EGR system is there for a reason. Disabling it will allow you to find out why.
