That little pipe IS part of the EGR feed and I'll bet that if you check the other side as suggested, you WILL find the EGR valve.

The little pipe I'm talking about is the one you can see in the picture to the right of the rightmost runner

Ok thanks for the clarification, I was thinking of either cleaning the valve or doing an EGR delete, I still have to choose what to do though

Well I don't quite know, I'm trying to inform myself a little more to see if it's useful or not

First - depending on where you are tampering with the emission systems can be illegal.
That aside, most newer vehicles monitor EGR flow and will generate check engine codes if the flow is not what is expected, an 'EGR Delete" would need to remove these checks from the ECU software.
Non-functional EGR systems reduce carbon buildup in the intake, but increase combustion chamber temperatures and with it, the production of pollutants, primarily oxides of nitrogen. Engine damage (burned exhaust valves) is a possible outcome.
