#3 is the egr that goes to the flange that connects to the metal pipe.#4 goes to a little black box that connects to the front cover that has the hose that goes to the underside of the intake manifold

Are you sure about #4, because I am pretty sure you're wrong.

#3 I am unsure of as well, since I have removed my ERG.

#4 is for the IACV It's on the back of your intake manifold. Here's a picture even.

as soon as i can get the part off of the exhaust manifold, i'll be sealing it off with a nickel and some jb weld - will jb weld hold up to the temps of the exhaust mani? i saw someone physically weld a coin in there.

thanks for the help so far.

I'm pretty sure #2 is the head gasket. Yeah, that's what it is.
