It started leaking from the flex shortly after so I had to take the flex off and weld again right at the EGR cooler body itself, then positioned the flex part back into place.



This weld was done a few years ago. I recently had the coolant pressurizing, so I pulled the turbo and inspected this weld, and took this picture. I would have liked to see that the weld failed, unfortunately something else more major has happened.

Do you know what the orifice size is? I have a cm2350 and was thinking bang in freeze plugs and weld them in place
