Egt question

Hey Everyone! So I got an egt for xmas, going to drill the manifold and put it in, everything I've read says put it in the drivers side manifold. But the spot where it looks best to put the probe already has one there. No am I an idiot? Is this stock? Or did the p.o take his gauge and leave the probe? Any help would be greatly appreciated im really trying to get this in soon but if I can just use this probe hole it would be much easier! Lol if its stock and needs to be there, where else can I go that's not hard to get to?

It's pouring so I can't take a picture but mine is right on the driver manifold underside just before the collector.

Could you post a pic of what you've got going on?

I went out and did some digging, finally found where the wire to the installed prove goes, thru my fire wall where it was clipped off. So I'm guessing the dealer I got it from just took the gauge out and clipped the wire but left the probe. Yay for me! Lol thanks anyway though!
