Yes your motor has a small coolant line going to the EGR
There will be a small diameter hose coming off the thermostat housing that goes straight to the throttle body. The throttle body will then have another hose that goes back to the rear of the manifold to the EGR valve. The EGR valve will then have another coolant hose that goes down to the water pump cross over pipe.5
