looks like somebody might have tried to put an egt there and then plugged it after removing it. it probably loosened itself or it was stripped. cause that's not factory as you can see. get a tap and die and plug it back up or try and get it welded or new manifold lol. it's telling you to upgrade.

btw does it really have 9k miles on it? jesus christ i wish mine was new as well.
