Default EGR coolant line

Hey, for the engine swap, we bought a GT40 off of an explorer, but this one doesnt have the hose coming off the back coolant dead end on the lower that goes to the EGR... is this like SUPER important? or can i just not run them, seeing as were not running a heater, and i would like to get rid of the solid tubes anyway

when i did my explorer intake i deleted the whole egr system, the lines to the intake and the valve, it cleaned up the bay quite a bit. You can get a plug and block off plate from rjm injection tech to delete the valve and keep from throwing a cel. Then you just have to worry about plugging the lines.
