Well didn't get a chance to add the UV yet, yesterday i ran down to the store and started shaking real bad, went to leave store and fired engine, felt like busted motor mount! Sure enough ,let's just say it was an unpleasant walk home. And my AAA expired 3 days ago, go figure. Gotta renew my membership And get it towed to my house. I don't want to risk my engine falling out ... Ughhhh... My poor truck... I'm thinking it's givin a pretty good run st 250,000 ... But i love my blazer!! �� gonna pick up motor mount and assess the situation this week sometime ...

Well, my buddy who was leading this little operation, took out a small metal tube piece that was slightly less secure than it seems it should've been.. Well he removed it completely, and after about a month of everything running Pretty smooth for the most part, its leaking an excessive amount of oil now, much more than it was originally. Like, when i start my engine, i can see drops on the ground already immediately after i crank the engine. Can someone tell me what this little guy is for? I posted pictures... I kept saying, that looks important are you sure this isn't needed?? Because I'm pretty positive that piece is important, everything in me, kept saying, that, piece is important and that's all I know... So please! I hope some one can help me...
that tube is part of the EGR system

So why does my non-EGR equipped 04 have the same tube? (see post 2, first reply)

Tell ya what, I've actually got a spare lower intake in the garage (no EGR type), don't know why I didn't think about it before. Tomorrow I'll pull it off the shelf and probe that tube and see exactly where it goes lol

probably cheaper to manufacturer them all the same. start watching @ the 15 second mark.
