I had the same problem with a broken bolt on my driver side, it has been leaking since. The only option I have is to drill it and retap it. I dont have any of the bolt sticking out, its compeltly inside.97 Special Edition Bird , Short bus stlye specialComment

I have one on the driver's side where my stock manifolds was leaking and caused the bolt to snap real easy. Mine I can weld a nut to it and get it out I just don't have the money to get it done. Also one of the main reasons the EGR leaks is because the piping doesn't fit into the hole that pacesetter allowed for it. EGR Sim here I come when I get some more money.00\' firebird v6 5spd<br />201rwhp ---- 230 rwtq<br />\"Everyday I grow stronger...and further from you.\"<br />WARNING: Do not take any of my comments seriously unless they are technical in nature and then only at your own riskComment

Just use some copper sealant around the EGR tube. Thats what I did and it hasn't leaked since.<a href=\"http://www.onid.orst.edu/~waltejam/\" target=\"_blank\">98 Bright Red Camaro</a><br />Too many mods to list....check my websiteComment

Napa or Autozone...it has to be high temp sealant...so I recommend only copper.<a href=\"http://www.onid.orst.edu/~waltejam/\" target=\"_blank\">98 Bright Red Camaro</a><br />Too many mods to list....check my websiteComment
