To determine if a 2.2L Ecotec engine has an EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system integrated into the head, you can visually inspect the engine. Look for an EGR valve connected to the intake manifold or a pipe leading from the exhaust to the intake. Additionally, you can refer to the engine's service manual or specifications for details on its EGR system. If the engine has an EGR, it will typically have associated components like an EGR cooler or a solenoid.
I'd call my local autoparts dealer and ask what a replacement costs and let them tell you if it has one.
Ther is no egr valve on the 2.2 turbo engines. With FI and turbo, there was no need. Some of the earlier carb engines did have egr.
The EGR valve is bolted to the rear cylinder head at the transaxle end

The EGR valve is located on the drivers side of the head, just above the transmission bell housing. Remove the electrical and vacuum connections, then remove the two bolts that hold the EGR valve to the head. Use a NEW gasket when replacing the EGR valve.
I changed the EGR valve, PVC valve, now it has gotten worse. I also cleaned the throttle body.

the egr sensor is located inside the egr valve attached to the passenger side head in the front
