for anything emision of fuel related,i've found it's always without fail,best to go with factory gm stuff...you local dealer should be able to find it,(if he dosnt have it ) by looking up other dealers that may have new old stock.  ( n.o.s )...aftermarket emision and fuel componants have to many diferant variables for these sensitive componants.....

here is a picture of it from autozone.

gm used that valve on many different cars... with different shaped brackets...

napa and almost every other parts store have dozens of various shapes of  egr solenoid valves..  with the wrong bracket... but with the right shape of valve.. all you have to do is carefully change the bracket..  

i will come back and try to post some part numbers...

try to list your local parts stores... makes it easier..   AZ , napa, oreilly's, ????

if you don't find the second or the first one ..

this one has the wiring connector that plugs in from the other end...

this last one seems also to be the cheepest of the reversed wiring connection...      i am talking about reversed wiring as it it plugs in from the other end... these have diode protection.. if you plug them in the wrong way...  you will blow them out..

what i don't know.. and i can do some research.. if you need.. is if the egr solenoid valve is normally open .. or normally closed...     try to get that second one listed.. it looks like it might really be it... take the original to match it...

and it will pass smog.. if it works...  it really does not have to be bolted in place.. but the bracket looks like it comes off with a little bit of work...
