I like the SVT symbol on the blower painted red!

Anyway that is part the EGR system, where the hot exhaust gasses get returned to the engine to get burned a second time.

Mine is rusty also.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I think it's terrible that we have these $30,000 trucks that comes complete with a rusty valve!! WTF, cracked fogs and a rusty valve, what a day. Thanks again guys.

If you drive it fast enough, rust doesn't have a chance to form
