EGR "o" ring

Hi again, I think I have a weep from my EGR system where it goes into the inlet manifold under the throttle body. There is an o "O" ring there and it can be seen here , item #4

Now, GM say the "O" ring is no longer a part. My question is: has anybody had to source this part from anywhere else, and if so, where from and what size etc.

Any help would be appreciated, as the oil mist is getting everywhere !!

Not quite sure of the size myself. Most of us on the forum have blanked off the egr and used a cheater plugged into the wiring loom.

Browse the forum for a bit you will come across enough threads on the subject.

If you do not go the blanking route then there are several stores that do the box with various sizes of o rings,there is bound to be one that fits where you need it.

Screwfix, Aldi, Lidl, Etc. Seen them in these shops many times.

Actually I have decided to go that route and have sourced the plug, a VW item I believe. I shall simply remove the pipe.
Thanks for your reply
