I think I may have the conclusion!
I'll get one of those partial blanking plates and ceremoniously bring the controversy to a temporary pause

Even the blanking plate with the hole can and often does throw a fault code, tried one in mine some time back, lasted two days before I had overboost/underboost codes and I pulled it out again.
I believe this is how it works...the PCM is expecting to see certain flow and pressure readings from the MAF and MAP sensors depending on rpm, throttle position and load, if these readings are outside the set parameters, the PCM will throw up a fault code....usually saying "underboost or overboost"....which some people seem to think is turbo related...but is not. With the EGR blanked or partially blanked, it upsets these flow and prssure readings and causes all sorts of grief.
I found the best remedy is to get the whole system working as it was designed....since I did that to mine...no issues since, haven't had a single fault code or engine issue for well over 18 months..

Not the EGR cooler, I only cleaned out the inlet manifold & head ports and changed the EGR valve itself as it was stuck/broken, but mine only has 130,000km or about 80k miles on it. The coolers often rust out from the inside if the coolant isn't kept in good condition.
