I took the venturi pipe off and it's got this brownish color instead of the normal black soot.

Could be condensation and gases (causing the color). Mine had the same, and it's disfunctional. When it was taken apart there was water in the egr valve.
If you're not losing coolant, and it's not all mucky in the piping, it's doubtful it's leaking. I wished mine was leaking causing cooling system pressure. But the cause of that was worst case scenario. Now I have a rebuilt engine with a new head.

As someone who hates counting chickens, even after they've hatched, I have to say I'm happy. It seems to be running real good. Like a normal truck. Thanks Gearhead & @m*m^2.
