EGR Help!

Hello guys I decided to clean my egr yesterday and found that it looked like black oil residue on it and down inside where the egr goes I haven't noticed my coolant level changing or any smoke at start up …. so is this normal or is my cooler leaking .. .. I did the test where you run hard and park on a decline and check it today and found no fluid.. Here are the pics from yesterday ..

Looks better than mine did. I'd slap the EGR valve back in (be careful with the O-rings) and forget it about it.

At least we know you already have the hookup if there is an issue!!!! I put my hands on them today btw. Let me know if you can't wait until we get moved in.

You look ok.
That is most likely just a little of the oil form the CCV system.
