Similar type of port, different intentions. Waterboxer engines don't have EGR valves.

For the 1.9 and 2.1, this is a test port for the Exhaust Gas Analyzer, often at dealerships. If it's missing the cap you could probably modify an end cap from regular pipe to work. -- Jim Thompson 84 Westfalia 2.1 "Ole Putt" 73 K Ghia Coupe "Denise" 72 411 Station Wagon "Pug" oldvolkshome@gmail.com http://www.oldvolkshome.com **********************************
