And I've seen them all!!!

good for you, not everybody has the knowledge to do that job. and, you do need a cleaner to put the egr tube in to soak and loosen the old carbon deposits that have hardened into the tube itself. otherwise, if you just try scraping it out with tools and brushes you risk having some metal get into your block that may still be in the tube. i just replaced it, brand new oem item, 20.00 and worth the peice of mind.
