NEED HELP!! EGR problem

I am in the process of reinstalling an intake manifold on a 2000 Max with a VQ30DE engine. But I have ran into a problem. I forgot if anything (such as hoses) attached to the EGR solenoid. I have attached a couple of pictures.

I need to try and get this vehicle back together in the next couple of days. I am going down for a serious surgery and will be down for 4 months.

Help!!

I honestly can't tell. I looked at my engine bay and could see the EGR valve with hoses coming off it. It looks like those two ports should hook to something.

I reviewed the FSM and that was no help. If no one else chimes in I'll see if I can remove my intake to get a better look.

Do you have any other hoses in the area? The stock hosing is bent specifically to connect ports so it can be pretty easy to line up.

Yes there are lines that run to it. Your throttle body and IACV are out right now, if you looked at your IACV you should have to lines running off it from the underside that connect to those ports, then those two coolant lines you have label obv. Go to your IACV.
