EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculator) tube, it's an emissions control device.

I had this problem. I used a die grinder.... Cut off the EGR head, and the EGR bung on the header. Got sum GREEN high heat industrial hose, and sum screw on claps to join the 2 sections.... good as new.

Hey, i was wondering how the obx header was working out? Are the welds clean? hows the fit and the performance?

If you can afford to get something else do. I used to work for a company that sold OBX and believe me it is sh!tty. about 40% of sales were returned to OBX because of defects.

Not exactly an S14 OBX header, but i put one on my NX2000 with SR20DE. The quality was pretty decent. Welds were good, tubing wasnt too thin. For an N/A setup id use em. For a turbo i would not trust the added heat and pressure.

u have to bend the egr and fit it into that hole use a breaker bad ive herd that works well wat i did on mine was i fitted the header onto the motor and semitightened sum bolts and i fit the egr into the hole and tightened it and then tightened the rest of em wen u do that the egr bends by itself try dat and for that other reply about the welds and quality its ok but i had to weld my second o2 sensor the one thats next to da cat because the hole was too big so quallity wise u get wat u pay for a semi good header wit sum defects but not all headers have defects do sum reasearch and u will find that sum have gotten a perfect fit
