simple egr questions '90/302
Is there a gasket or seal of any kind between the male end of the adapter and the intake manifold?
Should I use anti-sieze or some other stuff at this joint?
Should I use anti-sieze or something else on the flare joint at lower end of the tube to the adapter and at upper end of the tube where it joins the base of the egr valve?
I got the steel-to-steel joints apart with heat, but the fittings are rusty and I don't know how well they will seal when I make them up. I have a new egr valve or I would use J B Weld and wish them well.
Thanks for the reply.

No gasket from manifold to Pipe- Just egr to intake. I'd try wire brushing it to put it together before JB weld. But that is a solution!-Bob
If i can get the one out of the manifold on my '90 302 sitting in the garage I'll give it to ya for shipping cost! Give me a day I'll post tomorrow if It comes out!
